Try declaring the id variable as public so the child form can access it.

How do I track the amount of records recieved so far by a select statement?

I am selecting and inserting arge amounts of data into a SQL database. In terms of the inserting i have a solution i think i can work with. I will simply get the count of the number or records in the dataset and set the progress bar max value to this. I will then increment the progress bar counter each time a record is added. The problem is liking the progress bar to the selection process. When I am retrieveing these thousands of records from the databse I wamt to inform the user what percentage of records have been retrieved so far. Is there any way to know what percentage of records have been retrieved so far.

I am selecting and inserting large amounts of data into a SQL database and I would like to inform the user of the progress. How do i do this using a progress bar or something similar.
