Displaying a moving image

[James Robins]

Hi all,

Does anyone here know how to display a moving image on a form or in
a picture box/image control when a command button is clicked

Thanks for your time

1. There is an animation control in one of the Microsoft Common Controls
components.
2. If it is an animated GIF, you could use a WebBrowser control.
3. You can simulate an animation with an array of invisible image
controls that hold onto different images and then use a timer control with a
static variable to grab the image out of the nth hidden image control into a
visible one.
4. If it is an AVI, MPG, etc... you can use a Windows Media Player
Control.
5. If you are a masochist, you can figure out the DirectX or OpenGL
libraries from the Platform SDK :)
