splash screen advice please!

Hi,

I have created an application which uses a SQL server database. I created a
mainform which retreives all the customers. This takes about 3sec. I have
created a splash screen too. I use a module to open the splash screen and
then the mainform.

The splash screen opens up, mainfrom load, but still it takes 3sec for the
data to show up. What i want is while the mainform loads, i want to show the
splash screen.

Any suggestions.

Using VB in VS2005. 2005 has a new way to implment a spash screen that alleviates the need for hardly any code. But I have found that when a GUI that has a splash screen is run as a scheduled task, the splash screen (and no other screen) is displayed for the entire run of the application. How can I disable the spalsh screen just for when an app is run as a scheduled task?

Hello, I'm finding that if I set the "Cancel" property during the AppStartup event, the application's Splash form remains loaded. A call to the Close property of the SplashForm at that point returns a cross-threading error, since (it appears) the Splashform is loaded by a different thread. Any advice? I could ignore the SplashForm application setting and just

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.

Overview: 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. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
