Right now I have a vb.net windows form project that does a whole bunch of
things on the form.load event. The problem with this is that the user does
not see the form until all the those things are done.
Is there a way for a form to be shown first AND THEN have it automatically
start to run through my code? (perhaps a different event??? form.paint,
form.activate)
Right now... the form is running but the user can't see it, and so they end
up clicking on the application to run again and the user thinks the program
is slow... AND WE CAN'T HAVE THAT!!!! :)
I would like:
Basically the form would load
i would have a status bar that says "loading data"... and then the form
would then show the data once it's loaded
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
