I'd like to display a small animated graphic in my application (think throbber).

An animated gif doesn't animate using any means I've tried.

Using Quicktime works fine on Windows and Mac (RB5.5.5)

in its entirety, the Open event from a Quicktime control:

  dim aniMovie as new FolderItem("3flypigs.gif")
  if aniMovie is nil or not aniMovie.Exists then
    beep
    return
  end if
  me.Looping = true
  me.Controller = 0
  me.movie = aniMovie.OpenAsMovie
  me.play

Thanks for all the replies. Unfortunately, a significant part of this was avoiding having an external file. There is more than one way to load up an external file and animate it (MoviePlayer, HTMLViewer spring immediately to mind), but how can I do it without requiring an external file?
