Ok, we now have a SDI form that can act as the top level form which can now be used as a splash screen. By putting SCREEN=OFF in CONFIG.FPW, we can now hide Visual FoxPro during the setup.

But, it may still take 3 to 5 seconds before appearing because the run time as to load in memory before being able to run our first line of code which can then display the splash screen.

I guess it's still better to use a C program to show a graphic window right after we click on the icon.

Any comments?
