Video or Animation in Form

[Fable]

Greetings,

Is there anyway to get video (AVI) file or Animation file to play in
user form?

Appreciate any help

I believe you'll need an extra control able to handle it on the form, like
VB's animation control.

But if this is to be used on several computers by multiple people, forget
about good looking stuff and stay away from extra controls, they are nothing
but trouble; licensing, distribution, installation priviledges, versioning,
.... known as "dll hell" to developers.

HTH. Best wishes Harald
