Splash Screen [RESOLVED]

[Aaron Young]

You can use the code I posted, just remove the Timer and close the form after doing eveything you do in your forms Load event.

You my need to make a call to Application.DoEvents after showing the splash.

You don't need to start a new Thread to accomplish this.

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
      Dim splash As New frmSplash
      Me.AddOwnedForm(splash)
      splash.Show()
 
      Dim i As Integer
      For i = 1 To 1000
         Console.WriteLine("Do Something")
      Next
 
      splash.Close()
   End Sub

Regards,

- Aaron.
