Label Animation Style-1
A Form with lively Objects like Animated Command Buttons or Animated Giffs or Moving Text etc. makes it more interesting to the User to work with our MS-Access Applications. MS-Access doesn�t have any of those things built-in or ready made to use it quickly. Our imagination and ingenuity is the only tool available to create something with the existing strictly business like features provided in MS-Access.

Office Assistant And Msgbox Menus-3

You have seen that you can use this feature with few lines of customizable VBA Code to display MsgBox text formatted with Color, underline and with your favorite Images on them.

Image of a Microsoft Access Message Box, with the use of Office Assistant, is shown below.

Animating Label on Search Success
We have seen how to find or filter records using values entered into a text box. We have used three different methods to find or filter data after entering text or numeric search values into a text box. But, we have not used any visual indicator to announce that the search operation was successful or not. If the search operation was successful then the record that matches the criteria will become current or filtered, that was the only clue to know that the search was successful.
