Dear Sir,
          I know to make a picture in a form, I can use the control
'Image' and 'Picture'. However, the picture or image in these controls are
static pictures. Very often I can find animated pictures (I guess they are
in gif format) in many applications that impress me very much. So, which
control in VB is available for me to make an animated picture so as to
make the form interesting ?

Many thanks and best regards
