Hi
I have created a splash form with no border. When I try to open this form in
my main form using DoCmd.OpenForm "Splash", , , , , acDialog, the splash
form opens with a form border. If I use DoCmd.OpenForm "Splash" then splash
form opens without a border as desired but then the main form starts to
appear before splash form has gone.
How can I get the splash form to open without a border?
Thanks
Regards

Have the close event of the splash form open the main form.

I'm not sure if your definition of a splash form is the same as mine,
but try this:
make the popup property of the splash form yes and make sure there's no
border in the form's format properties
Set the splash form as the display form in your startup options
(tools->startup)
In the on close event of the splash form have docmd.openform whatever
your main menu/whatever form is.

Problem 1)
Any ideas on how I would get a splash screen to appear for a certain
amount of time when I open a database - it's to display a text based
disclaimer message.
I know about message boxes in VB but I don't my users having to click
on an OK buttone each time this appears.

I implemented the simplest of splash screens ( static and on its own thread ). But it seem that when first called maybe 8 seconds elapsed before it showed up, the main form follows several seconds later.
Naturally recalling the application, the response is adequate

Can someone look at this and tell me why, when I call this from my main app,
it displays fine (fades form in and out) but then before my main app
displays, I see other dialog boxes flash monentarily on the screen and this
delays the main app display?
Here is the fade which I compile to a dll and call from my main app:

using System.Threading;
using System.Timers;

Hi!
My Windows Forms VB 2005 application has Splash Screen form specified in
My Project/Application/Splash Screen. How can I close Splash Screen form
programmatically when Startup form (specified in same place) causes
error when it is loading and it cannot open database connection for
example?
Now error message will be below Splash Screen form, and it causes
problem how to read error message and close it.

Hi
In my app I have a SplashScreen, a login form and a main form. On launching
the app, I'd like to show the SplashScreen while reading config files and
attempting a database connection. I show progress of these tasks on a label
on the SplashScreen form.
Once this is completed ok, the splash screen should close and the login form
should be displayed. A successful login closes that form and shows the main
form.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
