Create the GuiProgressControl with the basic values as such:

new GuiProgressCtrl(ProgressBar_sample)
{
   profile = "GuiFileProgressProfile";
   horizSizing = "relative";
   vertSizing = "relative";
   position = "150 300";
   extent = "400 75";
   minExtent = "400 75";
   visible = "1";
};

Make sure the profile you reference (GuiFileProgressProfile in the example above) has a fillColor value set (for the color of the bar) and border=true and a borderColor if you wish it to have a border line drawn around the control.

You update it by calling it's setValue() function with a value between 0 and 1. For 50% using the above control, you'd call "ProgressBar_sample.setValue(0.5);".
