Hi Guys,

It has been a while since I have asked a question on this list :-)

When my application starts up it loads a heap of data into various components. 
This was fine for a while but now it is taking a long time and while the 
seconds tick away I just see a blank window. It looks like the program has 
hung which is not a good thing.

I can offload the data loading into separate threads and all the components 
will 
appear quickly but I don't want the user to start trying to use those 
components until they are populated with data.

Is there a way that I can have a progress indicator take over the screen 
(after the components have displayed) until my data loading threads have 
finished?

Thanks heaps,

Scott.
