Hi, i have a problem, i have a shockwave control called swf_holder and was wondering how you can make the movie that is in that control goto a specific scene. Is this possible? I know you can go to a specific frame, just wondering how to goto a scene.

Also, how do you call functions from the vb to the flash movie and how do fscommand(); work?

Any ideas??


Regards,

Martin

Computing Help And Info:
 
I use the flash8.ocx (version8) as an activeX control that automatically appeared in my System32/Macromed/Flash folder when I downloaded it for an internet page.
I put the control on the form usually in a frame so I can move it about without jitter.
You can soon find out what controls to use by the usual drop list that appears every time you type ShockwaveFlash1 such as.
ShockwaveFlash1.Movie = "C:\Shockwave\" & Filename ' Show it.
ShockwaveFlash1.Play
ShockwaveFlash1.Stop
The following makes it continuously loop:-
Private Sub Timer1_Timer()'a 1 second timer
If Not ShockwaveFlash1.IsPlaying Then ShockwaveFlash1.Play
End Sub
