Creation of active X control prior to displaying it

Hi,

I'm trying to use the Web Browser Active X control in my application. The problem I have now is that it takes quite some time to create this control which amounts to some delay in the refreshing of the screen.

Is there anyway that we can create this control while the application starts up so that the delay/wait is not that obvious.

Actually I'm more concern about my screen which kinda pauses while the control is created which is not a nice thing to see.

Thank you very much!! Have a nice day!!

Regards,
Steve
