Question

The application does a network check at startup. It shows a form during the check that looks like this:

But when I compile and run the application, the form misses the text label like so.

Here is the source code of the main file:

[STAThread]
static void Main()
    {
        Application.EnableVisualStyles();
        Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);

        Connecting c = new Connecting();//This is the waiting form

        c.Show();

        if (UsefulClass.Ping("www.google.com") == false) {
            c.Close();
            return;
        }

        frmV38 login = new frmV38();

        if (login.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
        {
            login.Close();
            Application.Run(new frmMain());
        }
        else {
            Application.Exit();
        }
     }

Here is Connecting.cs:

    public partial class Connecting : Form
    {
        public Connecting()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void Connecting_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }
    }

How can I show the label in the compiled application?

Answer 1

can you try

Application.DoEvents();

after

c.Show();
