    You must use Window.update for refresh data (or to show some variable)...

    check out report number 14020044 (Post Labor Burden)
    it has a has a line in there that looks like this:

    Window.UPDATE(2,ROUND(EmpCount / MaxEmpCount * 10000,1));

    Find out how this is used and there you have your solution. I've used it several times.

    I presume that you have set the dataport's 'ShowStatus' property to No, and want to create your own status window...?

    In the OnPreDataItem trigger: 
    Window.OPEN('Progress @1@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@');
    In the OnAfterImportRecord trigger: 
    Window.UPDATE(1,ROUND(CurrFile.POS / CurrFile.LEN * 10000,1));
    In the OnPostDataItem trigger: 
    Window.CLOSE;
