Is there a way when I click on a ToolStripButton, it shows the WaitCursor and updates the StatusStrip for about 10 seconds, then returns back to normal. I just don't know how to type in the coding.
If someone could guide me through the process. (or even give me the code)
Thank You

Using a timer:
1:Add a timer from your component toolbox to your form.
2:Set the inteval to 10,000 (this is in milliseconds, 1000 = 1 second)
3:In the timers' "Tick" event, write this code:
Timer1.stop 'This assumes your timer it named Timer1
Me.Cursor = Cursors.Default
4: When you want to make it show the cursor, either have a method to do both these lines and call the method or just write these 2 lines all over the place:
Me.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor
Timer1.Start
