There is no Valid event that I know of for forms. But I'll tell you how to use a timer.

1. Drop a timer object in your SplashScreen form.
2. Set the 'interval' property on the timer object to the time desired (in milliseconds)
3. Put your 'DO FORM' & 'RELEASE THISFORM' clauses in the timer method of the object.

What this does is: when the splash screen starts, the timer starts ticking and when it reaches the number of milliseconds you asigned to it, it triggers the timer method for the object; calling your next form, and releasing the one used as a splash screen.


Hope it helps.
Tell me out it comes out.
