Loading a splash screen...

I have a main form and I want to hide it, load a splash screen, run the splash screen's Load event, hide the splash screen and finally show the main form again. This is what I've got so far:

main form Load event:

VB Code:

private void frmMain_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
     {
     this.Hide();
     frmSplash SplashScreen = new frmSplash();
     SplashScreen.Show();
     }

splash screen Load event:

VB Code:

private void frmSplash_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
     {
     <code i want executed>
     <code to show the main form again>
     this.Close();
     }

Any ideas on what I should put to show the main form again? Can it be done using it's handle?

Try this:

Code:

---

private void frmMain_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
    {
    this.Visible = false;
    frmSplash SplashScreen = new frmSplash();
    SplashScreen.ShowDialog();
    this.Visible = true;
    }

---

Found this which is really good code on how to implement a splash screen.
