I am making a media player software using vb.net

I have taken a progress bar to increase or decrease a volume.I am not not able to write exact code for it.
I want that when I click progress bar volume should increse or decrease depends upon user requirements as we see in media player like vlc or window media player.

i tried following code

VB

Private Sub ProgressBar1_Click_2(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ProgressBar1.Click
       ProgressBar1.PerformStep()
       wmp.settings.volume = ProgressBar1.Value
       If ProgressBar1.Value = 100 Then
           ProgressBar1.Value = 40
       End If

   End Sub

This is the answer to a follow-up question following the advice by John:

Handle the event System.Windows.Forms.TrackBar.ValueChanged (not Click); use the event arguments parameter passed to your event handle to access the sender and read the value of its int property System.Windows.Forms.TrackBar.Value; let's say it's assigned to the variable value. Assign: wmp.settings.volume = value, in the body of this event handler.

See: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.trackbar.aspx[^].

Why don't you the a TrackBar control instead? With a progress bar, you have no way to turn the volume *down*.

The coding for it is "google is your friend". Learn it. Live it.
