I am at the edge of finishing and working on the cosmetics.
My main form takes about 4 seconds to load on my system, I imagine it would be slower on other systems, so I thought I would add a splash form to cover the time for my main form to load.
Then I thought it would be nice to add a progress bar and update it as the larger form loads.
My progress bar is a text box based on a hidden text box in frmSplash. THe progress bar text box has a control source like:
Iif([txtPercent]<100,String(10,"l"),String(Cint([txtPercent]),"l")
As my main form loads it sends new values to the txtPercent control and requiries the progressbar control.
All this is fine. and is working. However, the main forms Pop up property is kicking it in front of the splash screen. This form has to be pop up, as does the splash screen. How can I fix this?
