Hi!

A easy way is:

...
DO FORM "FORMS\METROSPLASH" NAME splash LINK
= INKEY(5,"HM") 
* set this flag if version needs to be reinstalled
SET TALK OFF
...

The INKEY(5,"HM") wait for 5 seconds, no cursor is shown but if the user clicks the mouse or hit any key, the code goes on!


The hard way is to use a DO WHILE loop which waits 5 seconds, but in this case the user didn't has the possibility to reduce the waiting time!

ltDateTime = DATETIME()
DO WHILE DATETIME() - m.ltDateTime < 5
ENDDO
