The file that controls whether the Workbench Splash Screen displays or not, and what it contains, is stored on the Workbench server in the 'shared area'. To access this folder open My Computer (File Explorer) and in the address bar type the Universal Naming Convention (UNC) to the share: This will be in the form of \\servername\sharename\foldername. For example, if your Workbench server name is IS007-1 then the address to type would be \\is007-1\qwb_pro\clients. Press [Return] to open the folder.



Double-click the client.ini file and open it with Notepad.
Whilst there is scope to include a picture it is not recommended, but if you do want include one, you need to enter it's location in the form of a UNC and the graphic is best stored in the root of the QWB_PRO folder.
The SPLASHCAPTION is what appears in the title bar of the Splash Screen.
The SPLASHTIME (in seconds) is how long you want it to appear on screen.
The SPLASHTOTALLINES is the number of lines that will appear in the message. Make sure that the number of lines you create matches the SPLASHTOTALLINES total.
Each line that appears must begin with the number followed by the = sign.
Once you have finished the edits [Save] and [Close] client.ini.



Run Workbench, and the above example will produce the Workbench Splash Screen below:



To stop the splash screen appearing, set the SPLASHTIME= to 0 (zero).
