Progress Bars vs. Meters

 ��meter�� isn��t an exceptionally creative name, so many people could easily develop a custom control with the same name.

Similarly, there are sites full of special controls that people have made for free download, and 99% of all companies will search through those first rather than spend development time making their own, unless they have very special needs.

As for the messages being the same range as the others, this is to be expected.
All custom messages sent to custom controls will be based off WM_USER.

And really, let��s face it. Such a simple control could be done in a few hours, even taking care to make it professional.
I would suggest either searching for an existing one as other companies do, or just quickly make one from scratch.
