I need help from you.

I have a form, and on that form I am showing a progress bar.
(That was a round gif image).

When I click on the button the gif image is visible and the result I get from database make the image invisible.

I am doing this, but if the database connection failed, the form is hanging and my image is not working.

I still want to run that image.

Do you have any solution for that?

Solution 2

I think you did not use try catch block. So, Use try catch block, get the error message and show that message as alert. Finally make your image visible false.

Solution 3

I think your GIF stops animating when your connection takes time to connect or fails. If this is the case, use a thread, or backgroundworker to do the connection stuff.
