I can get .pcx and .bmp file to display but cannot get .gifs using
Get_Property and
Set_Propery (ctrlname, "BITMAP", path )
The book indicates gif formats are ok. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks

Bruce,

Yes.
But seriously, did you read my reply to your former posting on this? I replied once for GIFs and once for RTF.
GIFs work in my 3.61. I now tried GIFs in my 3.3 and they worked even then.
Come to think of something! There are various flavours of GIFs, and perhaps OI don't understand them all! Try one that's not interlaced. Try one without transparency. (Perhaps interlaced GIF is sort of like the foreign characters of image formats?

It seems OI doesn't understand interlaced GIFs. Normal GIfs work fine. Transparent GIFs show too, but without transparency.

And animated GIFs show, but only the first frame.
