How to show AJAX UpdateProgress bar when reading SQL record

Question

Hello my code masters, Happy Holiday to you all and may the usher us into a healthy and prosperious new year.

 

I need your help on using AJAX Update Progress Bar.

 

I am reading patient medical detail from three view which contains tables that have relationship (I inherit the project though) these Views have 3000+ records.

 

my work is to use the views to generate xml from it, i want to use the AJAX UpdateProgress bar to show the progress by way of showing " reading 2 files out of 3050 files " and a progress image.

 

i have used updatePanel combining it with UpdateProgress Bar it shows for some time and disappear after word while the program is still generating xml files.
