ReportProgress (clsDatabase)

This event is called to report progress during a processing action.

Applies To

clsDatabase

Syntax

ReportProgress(obj As Object, ByVal Action As Integer, Counter As Long, Message As String, Cancel as Boolean)

obj

Refers to the object being processed or the target object of the action.

Action

Refers to the processing action that has been completed.

Counter

Indicates the numerical progress of the operation referred to by Action. For cubes, this argument refers to the number of rows that have been processed. For data mining models, this argument contains a number between 0 and 100 indicating the percentage of the processing task that has been completed.

Message

A user-friendly message describing the progress made.

Cancel

Allows the application to cancel an action by setting this parameter to True.

Remarks

This event can be used to update a progress bar or counter in a user interface. When using a progress bar to track the progress of a cube that is being processed, the maximum value of the progress bar is determined by the cube's EstimatedRows property. For tracking the progress of a data mining model, set the maximum value of the progress bar to 100. When processing a cube this event will be fired every 1000 rows. For data mining models this interval is inconsistent and cannot be determined in advance.

For more information about using this event, see Events.
