Is it possible to place an animated gif image on my form?

No? Yes? If, so how?

Yes but it requires that each user install and register a dll file on their computer. Not a good solution if others will be using your db.

My method to display animation (.GIF files) does not involve ActiveX or DLL's. Check out these old links to see how easy it is to put some motion into your forms.

Hi ghudson, Thanks for the links. they are quite informative.
I was thinking simply putting an animated gif in an object holder will keep the animation, i guess not well...I'll go try the links. Thanks
