    Cool Flash in VB

    Does anyone know if you can embed Flash files in VB?
    Also, does the user need any special plugin or OCX
    to view the Flash in VB?

    Yes you can embed a Flash movie in VB
    swflash.ocx is what you want to work with. The user will need this file on their system to see the Flash movie.

    So the user will only need the OCX right?
    Will he need the browser plugin?
    And is this OCX freely distributable?

    As far as I know all you will need is the OCX. I believe it is the same OCX (or plugin) that allows you to view flash in a browser. You would have to check Macromedia's web-site to be sure about distribution, but I'm pretty sure there's no problem.
