Thank you for the link.
I have added a progress bar as ActiveX control in InfoPath. It is
showing in the form at run-time but no the progress. If is finishing
the process then is showing the progress.
How can I implement that the progress bar is refreshing at the run-time
when process is running.

I have found a second solution but I don't know if it's the right way. I have
bound a .NET class (System.Windows.Formsin C#) in managed code in
InfoPath. I create a form and add a progressbar to the form. This form
is showing in the foreground when the process begins to run. It is a
separate window. The form with the progressbar is closing when the
process is finished.

Do you have an example to implement the ActiveX?

You could create an ActiveX control.

Hm, great question! Haven't heard of this being done. What kind of data are your loading from the Web service? Database query? Images? XML data?

You could probably split whatever it is you're loading into a couple of pieces (say, 10) and then after you load each piece update the progress bar (10% each time). Another option would be to load a small piece of data (a small picture) and time how long it takes, and then use that timing to estimate how long it will take to load the rest of the data. Then use that estimate that makes a progress bar update.

It is possible to implement a progress bar in C#? The form loads large datas from a web service.
