project source (*_proj.cpp) file. To see project source, right
click on the executable file in the Project Manager and
select the View Source menu item.
You will need to set up your project with the following steps
before using the code example:
o          Add four additional forms to a default project.
o          Place a TProgressBar on Form5
o          Take the Project|Options|Forms menu option and place
               Form5 on the available forms list.
o          Change the code of your project (*_proj.cpp) file to
               look like the example.
