status bar help

I am wanting to use something like the round pie looking thing that pops up when the hand held is doing something. My software has times when it takes 3 or 4 seconds to go to the next step due to calculations and sql queries. I am wanting to display something to let the user know that the software is active. does anyone have any ideas on this.

I am using VB

    Hi,

    why not just use the wait cursor

    cursor.Current = Cursors.WaitCursor
    Application.Doevents
