Hey Guys  
Any body out there know how i can popup a animated gif on top of a table while it is loading?  
I have tables that can be filtered on the screen and wanted a way to let them know the data is still loading.  
Also want to use this when the screen is loaded each time. Anytime the table is loading data.  
Looking for the same type functionality that is built into the report viewer control in Visual Studio.

thanks

Well ill be guess i learned something new today. I didn’t realize that they actually had properties that weren’t exposed in the property editor window. Thanks for the info works like a champ.
