problem with animated gif

I'm trying 2 display an animated gif on a datagridview but when i do it it is only displaying the static image. When i display it on a windows form the animation works but when i put it on the grid it dosen't. Is there something special about a datagridview that dosen't allow for it to display animated images

    Thank you, well back to the drawing board

    I've gotten around the issue by animating the image myself using ImageAnimator.

    This is of course a custom solution and not one suitable for more than 1 or 2 images but that's all I needed.

    That's an interesting idea though, making an animated image column..

    When you draw an animated gif on a windows form it shows its static picture. When you place the animated gif in a picture box the picturebox will play the image. The datagridview only paints the data inside the cell. The only time a control is used is when the cell is edit mode. The best you could do is to create a custom column which plays the animated gif when the user selects the cell
