To quote Stephen Lebans:
"The easiest method is to download a 3'rd party ActiveX control. For
performance reasons, it's written in ATL and multithreaded, I like and have
used this one.

For a listing of other controls have a look at:

You can also use the MS Web Browser control. Check the currently installed
ActiveX controls on your system.
Finally, for those situations where you do not want to use an ActiveX
control or just want to play a single Animated Gif as part of a splash
screen there is code on my site to do this in native Access VBA. No 3'rd
party DLL's required. The code is a bit dated now and does not include
support for Local Color tables that my latest version in VB6 does. Update
coming soon..it's my next project.(I've been saying this for 6 months now!)

BTW, it's considered polite to put your question in the body of the request,
not simply in the Subject line. As well, typing in all capital letters is
the visual equivalent of shouting, and is considered to be rude.
