Is it possible to insert animations into Microsoft Office Word 2010 Documents?

Question

I was just wondering if I could insert gif animations into MS Office Word 2010 documents.

Solution

According to this question on answers.microsoft.com you can insert the animation into an MS Word 2010 document, but it will only show the first frame (I'm guessing this is because they expect word processors only to produce static documents at the end of the day that can be printed out).

However, if you set it as a webpage document and view it as a webpage the gif will be animated.

So, you can't really do this as you would like, but it is (sort of) possible.

In order to be able to consider answering your question....please provide more input...what type of GIF, where is it from, do you have a gif player program installed on your computer ????
