displaying a gauge or something like that

[AriSilva]

Is there a way to display something in the screen for the user to know that the system is working?
For example, at the beginning of the program I have to load a lengthy table, take takes time. The application seems to be in loop, but it is working.
I was thinking about displaying a message like "application working", showing (maybe) a gauge, or a count of the csases being processed, without the user having to click or do any other action.
For example, when a cspro application calls another cspro application it displays briefly a message stating that.
Or when the csentry starts an application it shows the message "Starting xxxx" and a running round arrow at the left.

It's not possible for the application developer to display a progress indicator. An alternative would be to display a warning message that says you're going to load a bunch of data and it may take awhile.
