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 I have 10 classes in my project. Some small, none really huge. And another form public class frmQCLoader : System.Windows.Forms.For { private System.Windows.Forms.DataGrid...

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?

I have a rather annoying issue with VB.net 2005 and Splash Screens. If I configure a Splash Screen from the Application Property tab, it works just as expected when the application is installed on a Windows XP machine. However, when installed on a Windows 2000 machine, I get an unhandled null reference exception when the Splash Screen tries to close and bring up the main form. If you click continue on the unhandled exception dialog,...

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.
