I'm no expert but..

I think the problem is that you are trying to update the progress bar in the
event dispatching thread. Basically the update wont happen until your for
loop finishes.

The way (I think) JProgressBar was meant to be used was to give an update of
the status of a piece of work running within another thread.

eg
open frame
display progress bar
spawn a new thread that does some work

in the new thread...

for loop {
    do some work
    SwingUtlilites.invokeLater ( progressBar.setValue(whatever) )
}
