Access 2000 Progress Meter

[mshelley1]

I have a form that takes sever seconds to load, due in part to the number of records I suppose, however I would like to create a progress meter (form?) that will run while the form is loading. I have tried several different suggestions but none work. Can anyone help me?


Thanks
Mickey

You might try this site. They have number of add-ins, one of which includes a progress meter: www.fmsinc.com/Products/access.asp

Jeff Conrad has several free progress bar links you might find useful. You will need to run the progress bar from the timer event.

slider control?

Thanks to Rural Guy for the link to progress bars.
Has anyone seen something similar for slider control (non-activex) ?
Or a slider control on a continuous form?

Thanks in advance for any replies.

Sorry Rickster, I haven't.
