Ive tried to do it by changing the fill and color commands and have had no luck, if anyone knows anything about how to do this please help, Ive spent 4 hours trying to figure it out now. Chris and others, I have been wanting to do this forever myself but never was able to ... until today!!! I figured out a way to do it and its rather simple. You need to use SendMessage though but it works. Here is the answer: $result = SendMessage($hWndControl, PBM_SETBARCOLOR, 0, $color); To make my ProgressBar red I used the following: Win32::GUI::SendMessage($Progress, 0x400 + 9, 0, hex('0000FF')); I hope this helps.
