AVI keeps stopping when code continues!

[JJayUK]

Hi,

I'm trying to use the media player control on a form to display a helpful, small avi animation that lets the user know processing is going on behind the scenes - a kind of 'Please wait' form.

The form loads and displays the avi file correctly but whenever the processing it's supposed to do begins the player stops.

Is there are way to keep the player running while other code is executed?

Any help appreciated.

Regards,
JJayUK

If your process is running in a loop, try putting a DOEvents in the loop. Let me know if this helps

Try the Animation control
