Default How to display progress on slow opening form.

I've got a form1 that calls form2. The load event of form2 takes
several minutes to run, it has to do a lot of data processing. I'd
like to display some sort of message that either shows how the load is
progressing or at the very least that this is going to take awhile.
The problem is I can't seem to get control of the screen while the
load is taking place, it's basically locked up.


I forgot to mention I'm using Access 2007.
