vba - Access2010: Opening screen to display animation while linking tables -
when access 2010 application loads, need link couple oracle tables security reasons before show logon screen. show animated gif if possible while tables being linked in background. have created form has animated gif webbrowser control. when screen opens, animated gif works great.
thought open form , call animated gif form me.repaint doevents
and subroutine linktables, after wish close both forms.
the animated gif form opens, shows frozen image, links , closes.
is there anyway show animation while occuring in background?
multithreading in access isn't possible can similiar:
- split animated gif series of still images can viewed sequentially: a,b,c, etc.
- split background process series of tasks: 1,2,3 etc.
- make loading form. show image a.
- when background process finishes task 1, replace image b.
- when background process finishes task 2, replace image b c.
- repeat.
does make sense?
