Flash Images [SOLVED]

[boku]

If I create an animated flash image, is there a way to show it in my vb app, and to still have it animated?

Yes, you can add the Shockwave flash ocx to your form and play your swf file.

I didn't know there was one

I used the web browser control.
You can add this my going to the Tools menu:

Tools---> Components

Then select MIcrosoft Web Browser Control

Just resize it to the size of your flash thingy.

However, I prefer robs method, but I haven't seen that in action.

I just couldn't resist.

Option Explicit
'Add shockwaveflash player component to you project
Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Static bMode As Boolean
    If bMode = False Then
        Me.ShockwaveFlash1.Play
        bMode = True
    Else
        Me.ShockwaveFlash1.StopPlay
        bMode = False
    End If
End Sub
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
    Me.ShockwaveFlash1.LoadMovie 1, App.Path & "\badgerplayer1.swf"
    Me.ShockwaveFlash1.Movie = App.Path & "\badgerplayer1.swf"
    Me.ShockwaveFlash1.GotoFrame 1
End Sub

Booooo...Hahahaa...Played the swf

But can't run the project as I don't have the OCX
Where can I get it from?

I have it. I think it came with IE's Flash extension. Shockwave, I think.

Yes its ShockwaveFlash control (as seen in my posts and code ex.) that you can DL from MM.
Its a plugin for IE, oops, your running that little old beta version of FF.
Dont know if it can get the plugin DL for FF. Boooo! Ha ha ha.

Try Shockwave.com
