Hi Mario,
Thanx for your reply. I used your script and it didn't quite do what I
was looking for, but I will try and make it work.
Running your script, I notice my animated gif still does not "animate".
I did submit a Tech Support request to RunRev, and Heather replied with
"...I guess we don't support it."

Unless someone knows how to make animated gifs "animate" on Windows OS
as a cursor, I guess I'm out of luck for now.

Regards,
Mark Stuart
