Showing animation on a form

Hi All

How some application shows animation to show if some progress/processing is
going on.

like especially in the end of some wizard, the application shows animation
on a form, animation like we see when copying of files is being done.

is that done by showing some animated gif? If an animated gif then how to
display an animated gif on a form.
Thanks

Just add a picturebox and set its 'Image' property to the animated GIF.
Windows uses IMO a STATIC control to display the animation (AVI), but I don't
know if there is a good replacement for .NET available.

solution

Setting backcolor for the animation control does not take effect. The BackStyle property is set to cc2BackstyleTransparent. No matter what BackColor property is set to, in run time the backcolor is always SystemColors.Control.

X-No-Archive Hi all, Can anyone help me with structuring the data in a small tool I have to build? I'm trying to work out if there's a design pattern or data structure that would remove some of the dependencies. I am designing an animation tool.

I am trying to make a progress animation so that the user knows that there files are correctly being checked in. Trying to animate papers moving from the computer to the server pics.

I have a form that is set to "continuous forms" view. Several rows of data are shown to the user at the same time. I want to set FieldX and FieldY to true and show them only if the txtEmailAddress control is not null and contains an address. Some rows shown in the detail section of the form will have email addresses, some will not. If a row doesn't have an email address, FieldX & Y's visible property must be set to false.
