I have a statusstrip1 in my app. There's a couple of buttons. At each ButtonClick.Event I change the StatusLabel1.Text a couple of times during the process. With this I'm using a progressbar which is updated by a performstep().

Now, after pressing the first button, everything runs smooth.. StatusLabel1.Text gets updated nicely and the Progressbar does its thing. However, after pressing the second button (generate) my label isnt updated at all and i see 3 instances of my progressbar... The weird thing is when I add a messagebox to the code the statuslabel does update and the progressbar shows 1 instance.. Can it be something in the code I tried it with both VB Express and VS2005, same result.. Thanks

Private Sub Prepare_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Prepare.Click

Status.Text = "Working"

'Make Progressbar visible

PBar1.Visible = True

PBar1.Minimum = 1

PBar1.Maximum = 10

PBar1.Value = 1

PBar1.Step = 1

...

'MY CODE

PBar1.Visible = False

PBar1.Enabled = False

'Set Status in StatusStrip

Status.Text = "Done"

End Sub
