How can I display Animated Gifs in Visual C++ ????

[Jens Doose]

One quick but very dirty way is to use the IE control and let it display the gif... :-)))

The fastest way is to convert the animated GIFs to AVI files using some tool such as the shareware program GIF Movie Gear. Once it's an AVI, you can import it into your RC file (or just open it as a file), then issue a .Play(0,-1,-1) and you are all set.

There is an ActiveX control available here at this site that can do this but remember that you have to pay license fees to Unisys if you use any sort of gifs in a commercial application.

HTH, Jens
