Hi,

I have created one application with main form as splash screen and after
doing some initial work, I shows another form, but tasks utility 'Running
programs' shows 2 instances of my application, one is splash screen and
other is newly created form. Also If I popup one form using show then
'Running programs' shows 3 instances.

I cannot hide the splash screen as it hide the whole application even if I
call show for the new form. Does anyone faced the same problem? What's the
solution for this?

Thanks in advance,
Pankaj
 
Hi,
programs' shows 2 instances of my application, one is splash screen and
Click to expand...

I think you'd better to close splash screen.

static void Main()
{
Application.Run (SplashForm);
Application.Run (MainForm);
}

class SplashForm
{
private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
// do something for init.

this.Close();
}
other is newly created form. Also If I popup one form using show then
'Running programs' shows 3 instances.
Click to expand...

Try to configure property of 3rd form which named likes 'show in taskbar'.
 
Hi,

I suppose it depends on how you are creating and displaying the splash
screen (separate thread, etc.) but have you tried setting all but one form's
text to ""?

7.34. How do I suppress Form titles from showing in the active applications
list?
