Thanks for taking the time to read my question.

Is there a way to show animated images on a form? Like the file transfer
image where the piece of paper goes from one folder to the other folder and
flips on its way there?

Thanks,

Brad
 
To quote Stephen Lebans:

"The easiest method is to download a 3'rd party ActiveX control. For
performance reasons, it's written in ATL and multithreaded, I like and
have used this one.

For a listing of other controls have a look at:

You can also use the MS Web Browser control. Check the currently
installed ActiveX controls on your system.

Finally, for those situations where you do not want to use an ActiveX
control or just want to play a single Animated Gif as part of a splash
screen there is code on my site to do this in native Access VBA. No 3'rd
party DLL's required. The code is a bit dated now and does not include
support for Local Color tables that my latest version in VB6 does.
Update coming soon..it's my next project.(I've been saying this for 6
months now!)
