Animated Image in Win32

Question

How can i put an animated GIF to my dialog in my native Win32 application?

I have a loading indicator, and a loading process.

Thanks :-)

Not sure if GDI+ could be considered as native win32. In case you can use it check the following example: CodeProject

Answer 2

You could use the Animation Control. You would have to convert your .gif to an .avi though.
