Installation
1) Unzip the vbceProgressBar.zip file using your
favorite ZIP application (We recommend WinZip).
2) After unzipping the vbceProgressBar.zip, you will see a set of
directories:
PPC
HPC
Pro
PocketPC
Desktop
The vbceProgressBar
has been compiled for Palm PC's,
HPC's, Handheld Pro, and Pocket PC devices.
Within each directory there are sub-directories for each
chipset available on that device. For example, the HPC directory has:
HPC\Emulation
HPC\SH3
HPC\MIPS
Each of these sub-directories contains the proper
vbceProgressBar.dll compilation for that specific architecture.
** At this point you may continue
following the steps in this document or you may register the control using
the CE
Control Manager.
3) If you are a VBCE user (This does not apply to
NSBasic users) you must register the \Desktop\vbceProgressBar.dll
for use within the VBCE/eVB IDE.
This is the desktop version of the control.
Under the \Desktop directory is the Win 9x/NT compiled
control. Register the vbceProgressBar.dll
from using Regsvr32.exe using the following
syntax:
regsvr32 \Desktop\vbceProgressBar.dll
Note: Be sure to substitute the exact location
the \Desktop\vbceProgressBar.dll file as it appears on your machine.
4) This step will copy the appropriate files to
your Emulation environment. Empfile is a
utility which is supplied in the CE SDK for copying files to the emulation environment.
Using Empfile, copy the vbceProgressBar.dll
file to your emulator from the appropriate sub-directory. Each
processor type is split up in directory structures:
\HPC\Emulation\
\PPC\Emulation\
\PRO\Emulation\
For example, if you are copying the vbceProgressBar
to
the HPC Emulation environment, then you would type:
EMPFILE
-c c:\hpc\emulation\vbceProgressBar.dll
wce:windows\vbceProgressBar.dll
(Copy vbceProgressBar.dll
to object store's \Windows
directory)
5) IMPORTANT! In the emulator, click on
Start and choose the Run. In the dialog box type:
\windows\regsvrce\windows\vbceProgressBar.dll
(Be sure to substitute the location where you placed the
vbceProgressBar.dll)
Note: If you are using a PPC device,
tap the taskbar once, and then using the virtual keyboard type in RUN23 to get the RUN
dialog to appear.
6) Now, you will register the vbceProgressBar.dll
in
emulation by typing:
\windows\regsvrce \windows\vbceProgressBar.dll
(Be sure to substitute the location where you placed the vbceProgressBar.dll)
7) Now that the control is registered, you must
make the control useable within the VBCE environment. Using the CE Control Manager
select the specific device that you want to register the vbceProgressBar.dll
for Desktop Design
Controls mode.
Choose Desktop Design Controls and then click on the Control
Menu/Add New Control... Then browse to the \desktop\vbceProgressBar.dll (Substitute the directory
on your hard drive where you unzipped the control).

Note: You must use the Control Manager to
register the vbceProgressBar.dll from the \desktop sub-directory. This must be done for all
project types - i.e. HPC, HPC/Pro, PPC, and Pocket PC. Not performing this step will
display the error message, "This control has not been marked for use in Windows
CE" in the VBCE IDE.
