I had a similar problem which I solved. My problem was
caused by having code in the form's Load event that did
some database initialization work that took about 0.5
seconds. The form would sort of half draw and then the
rest would pop up after a short delay.
I solved it by putting my initialization code in a routine
called from the constructor of the form. If you expand
the section of the code that says something like "windows
designer generated code", near the top you will see a
comment that says "put your initialization code here". I
put a call to a routine of mine that does my
initialization and left nothing in the forms Load event.
That solved the problem.
Hope this works for you.

Hi,
I have a multi form windows application but when i open
new forms they donot load up "crisply", they open bit by bit as the items
are drawn.
What is the best way to open the form so that the entire
form is drawn/shownat the same time.
I hope this post makes sense, it is a bit hazey I'm
affraid.
Thanks for any help
Steve.
