Can someone tell me how to take the single time variable and turn it
into something usable by a progress bar's .value attribute? Or tell me
how exactly the elapsed time is returned and how to retrieve it's
minutes and seconds? THanks so much!

    ' ----
    Dim byteMinutes As Byte
    Dim byteSeconds As Byte
    Dim byteTime As Single

    byteTime = "547"
    byteMinutes = Int(byteTime / 60)
    byteSeconds = Int(byteTime Mod 60)
    MsgBox byteMinutes & " minutes and " & byteSeconds & " seconds"
    ' ---

byteTime contains the number of Seconds, so you could
assign the progress bar value to this variable.

The variables "byteMinutes" and "byteSeconds" contain
the converted values, which you then could
use in your program to display the current time in a
user-friendly way.

Hope That Helps!
