Razzak I'm really glad you posted this example because it allows me to formulate a question that I've found hard to phrase.
In this example: 1. Where would this run? I assume as a form eep? On entry to the row of the form showing the GIF? 2. Can you put into plain English what this does with comments? It looks like if when the form opens, the animation is be animated, then the EEP turns it off. If it's off it turns it on. Is that correct? If so, how long then would it run?
