Hello,
As anyone knows, before starting up a .Net application, parts of the
..Net framework must be loaded in memory. Therefore, starting this
application can last for quite a few seconds (especially on slow
computers). Is there anything you can do to show the user the framework
is loading? Many programs have a 'loading'-window, to show the user the
program is loading. Is this possible?
Some users think the program is not starting, pressing the desktop-icon
a few times more. Then they get the same application multiple times opened.
Many thanks,
Steven

You can use "Make single instance application" property.

No, not really, because the first line of your code gets executed after the
CLR/.NET Framework libraries have been loaded. Doesn't the mouse pointer
show the application starting cursor?

if you wanted to .... you could build a simple launcher program in VB6 that
opens a splash screen ... then calls you exe to run ... then after a few
seconds or so ... it closes itself ... our your vb.net checks for an
instance of the launcher and closes it.
