There is one more place where it should be removed from i think (depends on 
what you want). Try that.

Not sure about this one. You need the DoEvents() call if you want people to 
be able to abort. The ProgressBar is presumably updated with the SetPos() call.

Put print statements in your code to tell you exactly how far it goes and 
where, what values variables have etc. Data::Dumper is very nice if you 
have data structures to display.

Also, coding Perl without "use strict;" and warnings are unnecessarily 
difficult and error prone. Just a tip.


Hope That Helps,
