Well good news, that's not my splash screen. It's a dialog box used to load old files or start a new one. The issue I have is the code I put in loads up that window at the same exact time the splash screen loads up, the splash doesn't go away until the dialog window goes away. I have had a lesson on timers, do I need to hard code the splash screen in, set a timer up to release it, and then display the dialogbox?
