The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Creating a progress bar for a .vbs file

Asked by touyets in Visual Basic Programming, VB Objects, VB Script

Tags: , ,

Hi there, I've got a .vbs file with 127 lines of code and it takes about 6-7 seconds for the program to finish and I don't want people to 2x click again and again because they wouldn't be patient enough to wait 7 seconds (and they could also belive that they didn't activate it properly first time round so they'd click again on the file.... Slowing the process even more.

So is there a way to make a progress bar that would open as soon as you open the file and thet would increase as the program is running? I'd like the progress bar to increase as the info is gathered (1 paragraph - after the http adresses - is 1 info).

Here's the code:
