Is it possible? (Access2000)

Is it possible to have animated pictures on the background of an access switchboard? I don't think it's possible but I'm curious and want someone, otherthan my self to tell my brain that?

You can put an animated GIF on a form using a timer, but I wouldn't recommend it because the timer interferes with everything else.

I find that at the start of a procedure if you set the timer interval =0 and then set it back to whatever it was on procedure exit that it doesn't interfere with my general processing. I do this a lot as I use the timer to check for a log out call in pretty much all my applications.

Thank you, u guys.
It seems like a difficult task and since I don't know how to write procedures, I'll just use an ordinary picture.
