Access Popup Form Not Displaying Textbox

I'm running Access 2016. Using VBA I have a popup form which displays just before initiating a lengthy copy operation. Once the copy completes, I close the popup. The problem is that popup only displays the form's caption and not the contents of the form (which is a yellow background with a label containing "Backup in progress"). The form displays properly if I manually open it. I can't figure out what's going wrong. Here's the code that executes:

DoCmd.OpenForm "frmBackupInProgress"
fso.CopyFile strOldPath, strNewPath
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmBackupInProgress"

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I found that I needed to add a "DoEvents" command before the CopyFile to get it to display.
