for a .gif use a PictureBox

for a video use WMP (windows media player .net component)

for a flash you could use the Shockwave Flash Object to display the content

EDIT: the WMP might not be in your toolbox by default, select it by right-clicking in the toolbox and click "Select items..." this also counts for the Shockwave Flash Object

Simply get a control that do this what you want (e.g. ImageBox) and set the Dock-Property to fill to complete Page. Than all other controls that you put in your form will be on this ImageBox.
