How to show a child form when parent form is busy?

When a window form is working, I would like to show a small form just to tell users "Please wait...", but it seems that when the main form is working, the small form can not appear correctly. How to solve this?

Threading is a sure solution. But if it is possible to solve things in other way then avoid threading. Immediately before your "heavy" processing starts launch the new form and give a Application.DoEvents (In C#) This should solve your problem, or else you can go for a thread.
