Hi Bob,
Thank you for writing.
I am afraid that I cannot understand your scenario in details. You can take a look in this
KB article how to use RadWaitingBar for long running operations. Also you can find useful info in our
Step-By-Step tutorials. If you still experience any difficulties, please, send me a small sample application that demonstrates your approach. This will help me to provide you with further assistance.
Regards,
