Guys,

I hope I explain what I want to do correctly, forgive me if I don't. My app has a login form, and I would like the mainform to be loading in the background whilst the login form is present on the screen. Once a correct login is achieved, then the loading process to continue and display the main form.

My main form is shown immediately after the login form, except it starts to load there and it has a lot going on. I just kind of wondered if you did anything flashy like this in your medical app.

thanks

Geoff.

Nothing is coming immediately to mind here, but the whole purpose of the splash screen is to run threaded. So it sounds like there could be a treading issue within your configuration.

Hi Trent,



Thanks a lot for this sample. Since it is in C# I took the liberty to manually translate it to VB and it was a good learning experience, specially with the VB equivalent function for the C# Lock.



I simply added a VB project to the current solution and some copy/paste BigGrin.



Enjoy!



P.S.

To save some space you may want to remove your zip above since mine have the C# as you posted plus the VB.
