Splash Screen With Please Wait OR Loading Message in C#.net in Windows Application

This article will show you how you can display the please wait or loading message on button click in windows application using C#.net. This will help to display loading message while interacting with DB.

Some of my previous articles are as follows: Save Panel with Control Inside It as Image C#.net, VB.net in windows application, Dynamically Change Form Background Color C#.Net in Windows Application, Dynamically Add Textbox Control in Panel and Clear All on Single Click Using C#.Net in Windows Application, Confirmation Message on Button Click and Capture YES/NO Click by User in Windows application, C#.

So for this article first we will create a new windows application and add two form one form for please wait message or for loading message.

Now add one more form with button.

Now add the below code on button click event of the form.

C#.Net Code

using System; using System.Drawing; using System.Windows.Forms; namespace WindowsFormsApplication1 {     public partial class Form1 : Form     {         public Form1()         {             InitializeComponent();         }         private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)         {             PleaseWait objPleaseWait = new PleaseWait();             objPleaseWait.Show();             Application.DoEvents();             /*Remove the function and              put your function which will interact with DB */             DBOperation();             objPleaseWait.Close();         }         public void DBOperation()         {             for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++)             {                 System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000);             }         }     } }

VB.Net Code

Imports System.Drawing Imports System.Windows.Forms Namespace WindowsFormsApplication1     Partial Public Class Form1         Inherits Form         Public Sub New()             InitializeComponent()         End Sub         Private Sub button2_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)             Dim objPleaseWait As New PleaseWait()             objPleaseWait.Show()             Application.DoEvents()             'Remove the function and             '             put your function which will interact with DB             DBOperation()             objPleaseWait.Close()         End Sub         Public Sub DBOperation()             For i As Integer = 0 To 1                 System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000)             Next         End Sub     End Class End Namespace

In above code simply I have open the please wait form and then application.doevents for processing the data. After completing the process just close the form.

Now run the application and check the output.
