    macromedia has a control that lets you play flash files... I've done it in vb6, it's just a dll file I think, you have to find it but umm, as far as I know it wasn't too easy to figure out when a button was clicked or whatever. I could just easily play the flash files... didn't have much control over them. I'd say it's better not to do it anyways, kinda messy

    the only reason why i mentioned flash buttons is becasue i wanted some animation in my programe, but by the sounds of it this wouldn't be fesable.

    whats the best way of adding animation to my programe, would it just be to manipulate static pictures/images and have sound aswell?

    not had much hands on with vb.net so im unsure about what path to go down.

    any idvice would be great!!!

    Regards

    well if you are looking for something really simple maybe you can just load an animated GIF to your picturebox, but I dunno if that would match your needs.... if that doesnt work then I dont know

    Ahww, forget it, found it, it's in the COM section when you add components, shockwave flash is there...
