Help please....

I know this isn't the forum, but I couldn't get an answer.
I want to delay the unloading or hiding of my modal Copyright screen until after the main form is shown. Any ideas on how to 'trick' it?

Make sure your copywrite screen is always on top, and don't issue an unload command for it until the main form is fully loaded.

Like this:

VB Code:

Private Declare Function SetWindowPos Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal hWndInsertAfter As Long, ByVal x As Long,  ByVal y As Long, ByVal cx As Long, ByVal cy As Long, ByVal wFlags As Long) As Long
 
Private Const SWP_NOMOVE = 2
Private Const SWP_NOSIZE = 1
Private Const FLAGS = SWP_NOMOVE Or SWP_NOSIZE
Private Const HWND_TOPMOST = -1
Private Const HWND_NOTOPMOST = -2
 
Private Function SetTopMostWindow(hwnd As Long, Topmost As Boolean) As Long
  On Error Goto ErrRtn
   If (Topmost) Then
      SetTopMostWindow = SetWindowPos(hwnd, HWND_TOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0, FLAGS)
   Else
      SetTopMostWindow = SetWindowPos(hwnd, HWND_NOTOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0, FLAGS)
      SetTopMostWindow = False
   End If
   Exit Function
ErrRtn:
MsgBox "Error in SetTopMostWindow " & Err & " " & Error, vbExclamation + vbOKCancel
End Function
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
'To Make Always On Top
SetTopMostWindow Me.hwnd, TRUE
End Sub
