Is there a way that I could implement a loading Bar!

[Z1nkstar]

I have a Splash Screen type deal that loads after the user logs in I wanted to know if there was a way that I could add a Loading Bar that would say different things like Are you having a nice day? and some funny stuff like that?
Something to be fun about?

This has been discussed in threads, as recent as last week, now finding it again is the trick. Think this is it https://www.accessforums.net/access/...3-a-44782.html

Ooops, misread your post. Code can set info in the bar at bottom of Access window, otherwise set caption of textbox or the bar at top of form.

Well now that I have been thinking about this little project I wanted to Make a button here!
That would update the forms data and open a loading bar that gives the user a visual update.

Does not alter my suggestion.

Here is the end result of me trying an it doesnt work for me it only opens it up with nothing happening and the status says 100%

You are using OpenQuery method to run UPDATE sqls?

I've never done anything like this but code looks okay.

Have you step debugged? Review link at bottom of my post.

[Z1nkstar]

Do you think I should make it a different method?
How would you do it?

The video in which is displayed on the forum that you showed gave me what I have It doesnt work for me am I missing something???

[June7]

Doesn't work means what - error message, wrong results, nothing happens? Have you step debugged as suggested?

I've never had any interest to build a progress bar. I did explore the Hourglass method but apparently have not retained it in any code.

[Z1nkstar]

well I did try the step debugged nothing happens well this is what I said happens Nothing and the Status says 100% and nothing comes up as visible

Something is happening if the label caption is changed.

You set a breakpoint in code?

[Z1nkstar]

I don't know what a Breakpoint is?

[June7]

Then the code execution should pause on the breakpoint and you can step one line at a time and follow as code executes.

The image points to a command button but code is in the form Open event.

What does button do?

If you want to provide db for analysis, follow instructions at bottom of my post.

[Z1nkstar]

the button Opens the form that has the Loading Bar and when its finished it should close out but neither does it close or do any of the loading and the button also refreshes the data in the database
I can provide you with a download from google docs i have tried to add it here but i cant get it
