Hi people,

I was hoping someone could help me out please.

When my vb application tried to load data from the database it can take a few second depending on the amount of users using it at the same time, I was hoping someone could help me out please. When the data is being loaded I want some sort of flashing label to say 'Data loading.... Please wait' and the timer to replace the mouse pointer. Is this possible? If the label is a bad idea could you suggest what else I could try?

Thanks
