NX8 Progress Bar using NXOpen

[biw01]

Hello Friends,

I need to put a progress bar in NX 8 Status bar as my NXOpen application could take some time in processing NX data.
I could see that NX automatically shows a progress bar when we do distance computation.
Is there some way using NXOpen that I could use the same progress bar to show the user the current progress of my application.
I am already using the methods 'SetStatus' and 'SetPrompt' in my application but I desire a progress bar.

I would appreciate if someone could help me out.

Thank You,
