How do I animate an animated GIF on an Access 2002 form? --Shaun Merrill

Mer: You should be able to import directly.

Yabutt it does not boogie. I just get the first picture of the animation as a static picture. --Shaun Merrill

Use an Active X control called anigif.ocx. Heres a link for d/l and how to register it. Make sure you use regsvr32 as you must register the control on your machine before using it.

How much does it cost? I would like to have something free that does the trick. --Shaun Merrill

Here is a method to use animated GIFs without an activex control - just requires a bit of setup time.
