In my database, there is a presentation Form ("Form1"),
which appears first when the database is opened and on
Timer after 10 seconds, its closes the "Form1" and opens
the SwitchBoard Form ("Form2").
Now my requirement is that Instead of putting the user to
view the screen till 10 seconds, I want to make a more
profession look, therefore I want to put a progress meter
on Form1, It should fill the Progress meter field within
10 second and a message should be displayed as "In
progress ...Wait to reach Main Form".
I was seeing examples in the book, but it is does not suit
my requirement, but the part I can mention for your quick
reference :
For example a Text field "Text2", I will add on First
Form "Form1". The Text width will be 5 inch.
I am not sure about the Code, some of the part may be
something like below :
Dim StMsg As String
Dim ValReturn As Variant
StMsg="In Progress.... Wait to reach Main Form"
ValReturn=SysCmd(acSysInitMeter,StMsg)
Please advise me in details, as I am not very good in VB
Coding that where to put the code and how to run it, I
mean on Form open properties or where.
