Here is another way...via music...make a form and call it frmSplash or whatever and set it as your opening form(Main)
Then you call a wav file and play it async so that nothing can happen until the wav file is finished playing. They get to see your spash or nag screen accompanied to your choice of music and can do nothing till it completes and opens your second or RealMain form.
