Please wait ....Calculating

Hello,
I have a form that calculates a sum when it opens using DSum. I'd like a
form to pop up that says please wait, while the calculation is going on.
I've tried using the form's OnOpen and OnLoad events, but the pop up flashes
before the calculations are complete. It seems that I'll have to have the
form open and close based on my field's events, but I'm not sure which ones.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Melinda
 
Melinda,

Open the "Please Wait" form in the other form's Open event, and close it in
the Current event.
