    Did you add the reference to shockwaveflash via the COM tab of the references dialog?

    What OS are you running on? Vista? Do you have SP-1 installed for VS?

    I assumed you installed it too?

    Try creating a new blank project and start with just adding the COM control to your form and see if it still errors. Maybe it could be just that project.
