Using Progressbar in C # windows application

The user will be able to find some document on the local computer, and I want to show the user a progress bar while searching in my program. To be more clear, I have a foreach loop for which I want to bind my progress bar to show the progress. my foreach loop and progress should be running at the same time. Can this be done?

From ProgressBar Class

You can try something like

private void CopyWithProgress(string[] filenames)
{
    // Display the ProgressBar control.
    pBar1.Visible = true;
    // Set Minimum to 1 to represent the first file being copied.
    pBar1.Minimum = 1;
    // Set Maximum to the total number of files to copy.
    pBar1.Maximum = filenames.Length;
    // Set the initial value of the ProgressBar.
    pBar1.Value = 1;
    // Set the Step property to a value of 1 to represent each file being copied.
    pBar1.Step = 1;

    // Loop through all files to copy.
    for (int x = 1; x <= filenames.Length; x++)
    {
        // Copy the file and increment the ProgressBar if successful.
        if(CopyFile(filenames[x-1]) == true)
        {
            // Perform the increment on the ProgressBar.
            pBar1.PerformStep();
        }
    }
}


EDIT

For a longer task, you can also use the BackgroundWorker Class
