Design the splash screen as a form ( with no base table or block, just
display items).
Make it the first form in the application;
Include an on_new_form trigger ( or equivalent ) the uses a
PL/SQL loop to kill time ( experiment with loop index for timing:
like -
show_form(splash_form)
for x = 1 to 100000000
next x
)
then use the hide_form, show_form builtins to bring up the next ( and
first application related ) form .
This should do it.....Note: the above is not valid Pl/Sql, just a pseudocode example.
