Hello,

if you hide the application splash window then you should open a dialog window 
by code.

if you don't open a dialog window by code, the user might get the impression 
that the startup procedure is taking long, just as you describe.

the splash window is running in the application process, so you can simply call 
DIALOG (without opening a new window) in your on startup code if you want to 
display a different form.

after that, you can use CALL FORM or CALL WORKER to update it as a status 
window.

Yes I read the page you mentioned before I posted, But that page assumes that 
we are using the menu bars in the menu items. I am using the menu commands to 
build and present my menu bars. There does not seem to be a command line option 
to accomplish that. There is no mention of this in the manual. I also read 
though the other page about hading the Application window. This is what I had 
turned off before. Except that this sometimes confuses my users as they start 
the program and wait for it to start since without the Application window it 
runs and they get the menu bar.
If I could assign a image to the Application menu that this could be a neat way 
to create a status page by generating a SVG image and the pushing it to the 
Application window.
