I'm working with a Window based application. I have a small form with just 1
label control which is set as Enabled and Visible. Its text is in black
telling users to please wait while application is updating DB. However, the
form pops up but the label.text is hot showing at all. What should I check
to make this work?

Thanks, Alpha

Could you post a short but complete program which demonstrates the
problem?

See http://www.pobox.com/~skeet/csharp/complete.html for details of
what I mean by that.

Are you by any chance updating the text property and then doing a lot
of work all in the UI thread? Or perhaps updating the text property
from a different thread?
