One feature APMS5 still requires is a status/info box/bar informing the user of what is happening in certain circumstances.

In a case where there are multiple instances File.Copy, Folder.Create, etc, the user can't tell whether "anything has happened".

APMS4 always displayed the file copy progress, and this was handy as a visual measure.

Regards,

Have a look at the StatusDlg actions, and do a search for "callback functions" in the online help.

You can actually produce fully customized progress displays if you want. (I'm waiting to see some cool flash progress anims people!)
