Add to a Module:

    'Do loading stuff for frmMain here
    Unload frmSplash
    frmMain.Show

Or you can let your main form load the splash screen.

Private Sub Form_Load()
   'this is so the splash screen stay on top of your main form
    frmSplash.Show vbModeLess, Me 
    Me.Show
    'other init code
    Unload frmSplash
End Sub
