How to use splash screen

Hi

I add the splash screen to my application from add item. then i set my splasch screen should be visible for 30 s.. then the apllication should display my form. i write the code for that in application events.vb

my code is:

Code:

---

Partial Friend Class MyApplication
        Protected Overrides Function OnInitialize( _
            ByVal commandLineArgs As  _
            System.Collections.ObjectModel.ReadOnlyCollection(Of String) _
        ) As Boolean
            ' Set the display time to 5000 milliseconds (5 seconds).
            Me.MinimumSplashScreenDisplayTime = 3000


            Return MyBase.OnInitialize(commandLineArgs)
        End Function

---

But this code never solve my problem.. When i run the programme the splash screen display but it dont want to close?

How can i fix this problem

First up, 3000 milliseconds is 3 seconds, not 30.

As for the question, did you select your splash form as the Splash screen or as the Startup Form? You need to select it as the Splash Screen for it to be dismissed automatically. You select the form you want displayed after the splash screen as your Startup Form.

i did all that things but still can not? what is the problem

I an only assume that you've done something wrong but there's no way we can tell you what it might be from the information you've provided. Try the attached project.
