No its not that hard. Your problem will be solved if you use the following
1. Add timer to your splash form
2. Set Timer Interval to 10000 which means your timer is set to 10 seconds
3. Then use the following code in your splash form

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
Unload Me 'unload or close the splash form
frmMain.Show 'shows your main form
End Sub

In my above example frmMain is the name of your Main Form that you want to show after that splash screen.
Hope this helps
