Just found the excellent progress dialogs, but I have some questions that don't seem to be answered in the help.

Do I have to create one in my project to make them work? It appears not.

If not, why can I create one in my project? How do I use my custom one?

Matthew,

You *can*, but it's not *required* if you use the ShowProgress/HideProgress procedures.

If you want to create a custom program dialog, you would just select File/New/Form, and then select TProgressDialog as the ancestor class for your new form.   After that, you can just interact with the dialog like you would any other dialog/form (with the understanding, of course, that you're dealing with a dialog instead of a plain form, and there is some additional functionality for modality and button handling).
