I can't understand how to make the progress bar to work (Resolved)

[Pies]

Hi everyone, I've been reading some topics here about the progress bar, well I got a code here on how to make a progress bar but what I can't understand is on how to make it work with the file im copying. If the file im copying is finish, the progress bar should also be 100%. just like the example below,

FileCopy("C:\*.au3", "D:\mydir\*.*")

; Method to copy a folder (with its contents)
DirCreate("C:\new")
FileCopy("C:\old\*.*", "C:\new\")

FileCopy("C:\Temp\*.txt", "C:\Temp\TxtFiles\", 8)
; RIGHT - 'TxtFiles' is now the target directory and the file names are given by the source names

FileCopy("C:\Temp\*.txt", "C:\Temp\TxtFiles\", 9); Flag = 1 + 8 (overwrite + create target directory structure)
; Copy the txt-files from source to target and overwrite target files with same name

and here's the code i found for the progress bar

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=
$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 633, 447, 193, 125)


$Label3 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 136, 172, 102, 17, BitOR($SS_CENTER,$SS_BLACKFRAME,$SS_CENTERIMAGE))
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1,$GUI_BKCOLOR_TRANSPARENT )
$Label1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 137, 173, 1, 15)
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, 0x00ff00)
$Label2 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Label2", 136, 172, 102, 17, BitOR($SS_CENTER,$SS_CENTERIMAGE))
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1,$GUI_BKCOLOR_TRANSPARENT )
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
for $n = 1 to 100
    controlmove($Form1,"",$Label1,137,173,$n,15)
    GUICtrlSetData($Label2,$n & "%")
    sleep(90)
Next

#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

    EndSwitch
WEnd

1) get the full size of the file to copy with FileGetSize

2) start copying the file to the destination

3) whilst the file is copying, repeatedly use FileGetSize on the destination file in a loop (do...until)

4) whilst looping, set the progress bar as the current file size divided by the full file size multiplied by 100.

[EDIT] oh, and use GUICtrlCreateProgress rather than convoluting from labels.

Ehehe! i'm sorry for that then. Calm down sorry, anyway, there is something I wanna know. I found Mr.Creator's "Copy with progress" sourcecode. And I wanna know if it is possible to just write the destination of the folder i want to copy if the program that im going to run is in the same folder. For example, the "Copy with progress" is inside the "Desktop folder" and I want to copy the folder named "Source" which is also inside the "Desktop folder", how am I going to write the code which is something like

_CopyWithProgress( "\Source", "C:\Documents and Settings\McPisces\Program Files\Destination", 1)

Instead of writing all the path of the "Source folder" like this

_CopyWithProgress("C:\Documents and Settings\McPisces\Desktop\Source", "C:\Documents and Settings\McPisces\Program Files\Destination", 1)

_CopyWithProgress(@scriptdir &  "\Source", "C:\Documents and Settings\McPisces\Program Files\Destination", 1)

but .\ is subject to variable working folder assignment
