Check out VCL Image Browser and LCL Imager demos - they both can load and display APNG images.
Basically you need to load the image into TMultiImage and then convert each frame to VCL TBitmap descendant which you can easily display on form.

Thank you for your reply, but i mean i want to show the animation.
With another word, i want to assign an animated png file to any control then let it animates the file.. Is it possible? or should i assign all frames one by one?
Thanks right now..

There's no self animated TGraphic class in Imaging currently.
You could manually switch frames one by one (you'll need to know frame delays for proper animation read from the file - this will be in SVN repository during today). Another option is to modify ExtraGIF mod found in Imaging\Extras\Contrib\ExtraGIF (self animating class for GIF images) to support APNG images as well.
