Spalsh Screen -C#

It is a good idea to create splash screen when you loading data on the main form. So splash screen resides till the data loaded on the screen.

Fist design a form then set formborderstyle property to "SizableToolWindow"
set ControlBox Property to "False"
set StartPosition Property to "CenterScreen"
set WindowState Property to "Normal"

Import following name space with using directive


using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

then write following code on the your main forms load event


FrmSplash frm = new FrmSplash();
frm.Show();
Application.DoEvents();
Application.DoEvents();
Application.DoEvents();
Application.DoEvents();
Application.DoEvents();
Application.DoEvents();
////do your work here you can put your code to load data
Application.DoEvents();
Application.DoEvents();
Application.DoEvents();
Application.DoEvents();
Application.DoEvents();
frm.Close();
