Always on Top Form using WinForms

[Chris Boothe]

I would like to know how to create an always on top form in C# using WinForms.

The purpose is to create a progress bar showing the progress of a process
.I would have to update the top most form and have it refresh to show the
updated progress bar.

Any ideas?

There's the TopMost property on a form, but if what you're after is a
progress bar that updates cleanly, you may want to consider placing the
work in a background thread and having that thread update the progress
bar (via BeginInvoke).
