How to use Current Probe in Proteus

I want to measure current and show it on oscilloscope, can someone tell how to use the current probe.

Also i want to show the voltage waveform across a resistor so, how do i connect two wires for voltage difference and show it in oscilloscope

EDIT: Sorry i forgot to mention i am trying to measure it in Proteus

Is the "current probe" you ask about one that is based on measuring the voltage across a resistance or one that picks up the current with an inductive coil as described here: http://www.cappels.org/dproj/aciprobe/ACCurrentProbe.html

I made a slightly modified version with a split coil, so I did not need to disconnect the current carrying conductor from the circuit. Here are some pictures of it:

At what frequency does the current oscillate?

I think for measuring voltage i can connect the two terminals to A and B and then invert B, A+B on channel A would give me the voltage difference.
