How to display Splash Screen between two forms in C# .net windows application?

I designed an easy solution. I have not used Asynhcronous model. If it is needed you can use BackgroundWorker class.

My code is below.

public partial class Form1 : Form
   {
       public Form1()
       {
           InitializeComponent();
       }

       private void btnOpen_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
       {
           Form2 frm = new Form2();
       }
   }

Form2.cs

public partial class Form2 : Form
    {
        Timer tmr;
        ProgressBar p;
        frmSplash f;
        public Form2()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            tmr = new Timer();
            tmr.Interval = 1000;
            tmr.Tick += new EventHandler(tmr_Tick);
            tmr.Start();
            p = new ProgressBar();
            p.Height = 30;
            p.Width = 320;
            f = new frmSplash(p);
            f.Show();
        }

        void tmr_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            p.Value += 20;
            if (p.Value == 100)
            {
                tmr.Stop();
                Application.DoEvents();
                f.Hide();
                this.Show();


            }
        }
    }

And I added a WinForm named frmSplash and put a flowLayoutPanel on it. Code is below.

public partial class frmSplash : Form
    {
        public frmSplash(ProgressBar prg)
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            flowLayoutPanel1.Controls.Add(prg);
        }
    }

Run Form1 and click button. First splash form will be opened after progressbar is filled it will be hide and Form2 will be displayed.
