Hi Efran,
 
Thanks for the tip on the timer control.  I have the progress working properly using the timer component.

Hi Mark,

Afaik this shouldn't be possible. You should instead keep polling the
server until the operation completes; this one could be achieved using,
for example, a Timer control [1] (actually a component, by the way)
which would fire an asynchronous postback on the UpdatePanel every n
seconds, thus updating the panel content as needed. The last
asynchronous postback should then disable the aforementioned Timer
control. Note that you should include the Timer's Tick event in an
AsyncPostBackTrigger inside the Triggers collection of the UpdatePanel.

Hope this helps.
