Topic: Splashscreen after login

Hi, I would like to show a splashscreen when my application starts.
Searching the forum I found this example by Derek that works great:
http://myvisualdatabase.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=3839
My application uses the login procedure internal to myvdb, with tables of roles and users, and the splashscreen appears until the login screen appears... great. After entering the credentials the app takes a long time to open.
My question is this: Is it possible to make a splashscreen appear after entering the credentials in the login mask? ...That way the user would have a distraction during the long boot time.
Thank you

Hi,
Just move the code associated with the splash screen to the Form1_onshow event and that should work.
(see attached - user/password is admin / admin).
Derek.
