I have not used animated gifs much in the past, but just placed one on a form.
I have an EEP that  projects a temp table from an ODBC table that takes 30-40
seconds to complete.  I wanted a visual queue to the user that processing was 
indeed taking
place, so I displayed a text message and placed the animated gif beside it.

Property Gif001 visible 'TRUE'
Property Gif001 refresh 'TRUE'

Project temp Table  .......

Displays the gif object but it does not move (animate) until the PROJECT 
operation completes.
Then it moves quite nicely.

What is the correct process to give the user  a moving visual notice while the 
PROJECT is occuring?

Thanks,
-Bob
