splash form problem DDBeards 11/21/2008 3:17:01 PM I have a FrmSplash form open and then I run code to load the data and check out the user. All works fine accept the forms boarder and title appear and the body of the form does not until the other code is finished. I have tried loading on timer and tried running fromt he autoexec macro nothing seems to work. Is there a way to delay the code until the form is completly loaded or to set the timer to fire only once? thanks Chris

Re: splash form problem DDBeards 11/21/2008 3:59:00 PM Right now I have a hidden form frmLoadData start from the startup option. This is the code in that frmLoadData. It opens the frmsplash but only shows the title and boarder, then runs the macro maclocaldata. when that macro ends, and not until then does the body of the frmsplash appear. I need for the entire form to be displayed then the macro run. Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer) DoCmd.OpenForm "frmsplash", acNormal, , , acFormEdit, acWindowNormal End Sub Private Sub StartUP() DoCmd.RunMacro "MacLocalData" ' Load Data End Sub "Linq Adams via AccessMonster.com" wrote: [Quoted Text] > WE really need to see the code you're currently using to do all of this, in > order to make an intelligent guess at what you need to modify.
