Startup form won't load correctly 1

[EvilCabal]

Hey,

When my database is opened, there is some loading to do. So I created a SplashScreen form to distract to user from this loading time. But access only shows the border of the form and wait for all loading to finish before loading the contents of the form... Pretty useless!

I also have the same problem when performing operations that demands some time. If I try to pop-up up form that says "Updating..." while stuff is being processed, I only see the border of the form, the rest won't load.

Please help I'm clueless.

If your startup form is loading the splash screen, in the line after the Docmd.Openform "YourSplashScreenName", use:

YourSplashScreenName.Repaint


If your splash screen is now the startup form, in the splash screen's on load event use:

Me.Repaint
