    Public Function pbarinc(ByVal increment As Integer)
        pbleft.Image = My.Resources.pbar1
        If pbblue.Width >= pbback.Width - increment Then
            pbblue.Width = pbback.Width
            pbright.Image = My.Resources.pbar3
        Else

    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        Timer1.Start()
    End Sub

    Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
        'incrementing the progress bar change the '10' to any number
        pbarinc(10)
        'this is kind of saying if the progressbar is full execute some code.
        If pbblue.Width >= pbback.Width Then
            'this will execute the code before it shuts the timer off 
            Timer1.Stop()
        End If
