Hi all.

I'm attempting to animate within a form and am having to repaint the form after each iteration. Flickers like nobody's business. I have used the Bit Blip API call in VB6 for animation but this needs the .hdc property of the imagebox. It doesn't appear to be available in Excel.

What is the best way to animate without flickering in VBA?

I've found it can be reduced by putting the animation in a frame and only repainting the frame, anything better?
