Hello all [smile],

I have a question that maybe someone here can help me out with. I have a Splash screen form that i have open on startup and then use the Timer to close the form and open the main menu. I have gotten that.

But I want to open a Form hidden while the Splash Screen is open. I cant seem to keep the splash window showing while the form opens up hidden.

Any ideas?!

Thanks in advance...

Perhaps if you open the hidden form first and then open the splash screen it would help.
 
I figured it out. I used DoEvents function and it seemed to help me out. My form now comes up while the forms open in the background.

Thanks!
