Hi,

there is nothing wrong in having another thread showing a splash screen before creating
an instance of your actual application, in fact it is the way I prefer it (create and
show the splash as soon as possible, with the least amount of app code running yet,
and close it as late as possible, i.e. at the end of the main app's constructor, or in
its load event).


But I do have two remarks:

1. if the splash has to share something with the actual app, be careful to close
and syncrhonize things properly (e.g. the settings file, is your splash reading/writing
it ? closing it ? if so, did you establish a lock ?)

2. I did not like the abort you mentioned. You should not abort/kill a thread if there
are softer ways to achieve what you want (e.g. Form.Close, or setting a flag that makes
a loop terminate).

Smile | :)
