OS/2 2.0 has a standard dialog object called a "slider" that will do
this.  Output sliders will show up as the "percent completed" displays
that Windows users are familiar with.  Input sliders show up as a
variant on scroll bars - run the "Cat And Mouse" game that comes with
OS/2 to see sliders - it's settings dialog uses them.

The previous issue of OS/2 Monthly Magazine had an article on
programming sliders.
