Hi,

Could someone please tell me what's wrong with the following code?
I tried to run the splash screen on a seperate thread, but it will only show 
up after the main thread is finished.
Is there a way to allow the two thread starting at the same time?

Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Tom

here is my code snip.

....
  public static void main(String[] args) {

    SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
       public void run() {
        try {
           UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
                   }
        catch (Exception exception) {
          exception.printStackTrace();
        }

            Runnable runner = new Runnable() {
             public void run() {
            try {
              Thread.sleep(1000);
                }catch (InterruptedException e){}

            validate_users();

            String status = "Loading... Please wait...";
             JDialog jwin = new JDialog();

            JLabel l = new JLabel();
            JPanel jpanel = new JPanel();

            l.setText("Now Loading...");
            l.setIcon(image3);
            l.setVisible(true);
            jpanel.add(
                new JLabel("Now Loading...",
                           SwingConstants.CENTER));

            jpanel.setVisible(true);
            jwin.getContentPane().add(jpanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);

            jwin.setTitle(status);
            jwin.setResizable(false);
            //jwin.setModal(true);
            jwin.setBackground(Color.lightGray);
            jwin.setBounds(400, 400, 250, 150);
            jwin.setVisible(true);
            jwin.repaint();

                   }

                 };
                  EventQueue.invokeLater(runner);

              new Appilcation();
           }

    });

}
