You will need to write some code to have a progress bar in C++ for DOS. Do you want the logic steps?

Write a class for the progressbar. u should manually do the following things
save the screen under the progressbar
use a good ascii character as the symbol
update the progressbar
restore the screen
etc...

I made a class for prograssbarin GUI for my XII project...

It quite resembled WindowsXP's progress bar...

But unfortunately it was in the College's HDD only...

i did it!

thx guys for all the help, i finally did it:
this was how:

1.put a textbackground color,
2.set a text color different from background
3.inside a loop(depends on length of progressbar) print " "(a space) that will be in the color u wanted, then use the delay function in dos.h,

thats it, it worked!
