I would like to make a small avi that plays over and over when the database is being accessed in my VB app. I am unsure how to tell it to animate this and how I can be sure there will be enough system resourses at all times to make it run as smooth as the one in IE does. Any suggestions? The art is the easy part, we can do a gif, an avi whatever. ust the code is the problem.

Thanx in advance!
