How do I get to show my ProgressBar?

[Dranzhen]

I know this is simple...but honestly I'm puzzled with the VB's behavior.

I have a Form with the Progressbar with a message "Please wait ...Loading...". I intend to call this everytime a call a process for the user would know the system doesn't hang on him/her. I place the code 'ProgressForm.Show' before loading other Form (because I intend to show the progress with the message upon the loading the module). I get to see the form (Progress Form) but it has nothing inside. It appears to be the screen doesnt refresh of the form maybe. I also put the me.refresh inside the progress form but still nothing happens, still the same old darn form with nothing in it.

So my question is, How do I get this fixed? any help from anyone would be very much appreciated?

In the Form_Load of the messed-up form:

Private Sub Form_Load()
    Me.Show
    Me.Refresh
    DoEvents
End Sub

Does that wake it up?

I knew it was simple...which makes me think, why I didn't think of it earlier? Darn!

Anyway, Thanks filburt1! ...I appreciate it!
