    add the Shockwave Flash control to your project. Draw the control

    Code:
    ShockwaveFlash1.Movie = "yourmovie.swf"

    No they dont Zevlag, just like everything else in VB, you make a setup package and the control will be installed.

    Really? So lets say I weere to put a MSWord file there, the appropriate dlls, etc. will be installed when I make P & D installation? Give me some examples.. I thought the user had to have the specific piece of sotware. Will it work with any file type?

    OK guess I mis-understood.. Flash has it OWN control.. I was thinking OLE.

    My mistake

    i don't know about Word or othere programs in your application but flash has a component that you load into the form. so the user,when they use your program w/ flash has the component which(i believe) is the player.

    but if you don't load the component you can't use flash even if the user has the flash plugin installed becouse VB won't know what to do w/ the flash file
    pnj
