dotnet compact framework:

Hi,

Is it by any way, possible to close the startup form. Myapp has
the startup form as the splash screen, which is of no use hidden,
except increasing the memory consumption. I would better like to close
it than hide it. In some post i saw someone suggesting to use one's
own message queue instead of the Application.Run(). Can any one expand
on this? Any other idea??



Thanks,

Hari.

Look at your 'Project Properties' and change the 'Starup Object' to
be a non-ui class that creates an instance of your splash form and
then disposes of it when finished with the startup procedures.

Start with another Form and have it show the splash screen on load.
