Have you set the Style?

C#

myProgressBar.Style = ProgressBarStyle.Marquee;

Should do the trick.

To show ProgressBar working you have to use Timer control.On Timer_Tick event of Timer control write the following code :

VB

Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
        ProgressBar1.Value = ProgressBar1.Value + 1
End Sub

Now write following code on Button where you open SM_Progress Form :

VB

Timer1.Interval = 100
Timer1.Enable = True
Timer.Start()

I hope it will help you. :)
