Displaying text on a TProgressBar

Hi,

I would like to know how to display text on a TProgressBar in Delphi 4 Professional.  I was hoping to display some centred text such as "50% (10k of 20k) transferred" on the face of the TProgressBar.  However, there doesn't appear to be a Caption or Text property to specify the text.

I tried to position a label over it and use that to display the text, however the label always appears behind the TProgressBar, so this doesn't seem to work.

Any ideas?

Thanks in Advance,

Richard

Try to set Transparent property of the label to True

use a TGauge instead... you'll find it on the Samples tab.
