Hi

When my form appears, it draws fields one by one which does not look good.
Is there a way to make the form paint all fields internally and then display
them all at once?

Thanks

Regards

Search the VS online help for "SuspendLayout" and "ResumeLayout" - I think
these are what you are after.

You are welcome!

The designer will add these commands automatically, nevertheless this
won't prevent ugly effects when showing the form.
 
So is there a solution? The app doesn't look professional when fields appear
one by one. I already had tough time trying to tell clients why vb.net apps
take longer to load (pre-compile etc.). To users, it appears to be a step
backwards from earlier dev tools.

Thanks

Regards
