How to create a userform progess bar with inverted colors?

Hey Guys,
I have done this before, but that was years ago!
I cannot find any samples, and it is a fairly common type of progress bar where you have blue on one side and white on the other, with the percent in the middle. Ther percents are displayed in the inverted color of the position of the bar, so as the bar moves, part of the numbers are white and part are blue or black in the image - This image is only one I could find that showed what I am after and it is a CSS, but I have done it with userforms!
For this life of me, I cannot find that code or the userform I used to use.

It was pretty simple and it was really just based on how the labels overlapped from what I remember, it was not hard at all!
Thanks!
Bruce

AFAIK there is no way to do exactly that in any Office app. You can modify the length of a bar of any particular colour and display the percent value, but not have parts of characters display different colours like you show. Would be happy to be proved wrong but not expecting it. The length of the bar is sometimes accomplished by changing the width of a control with a background colour; sometimes an image is used instead because it can provide some eye candy for effect.
