Flash animation in MS Access 97

[KarenInPA]

I'm not sure where to post this one, but it's probably a very simple question to most of you guys. So I picked newbies.

Anyway, I would like to embed an ordinary flash animation (no variables to pass, no data to transfer etc) into an MS Access 97 application. The app will run on local machines only - not the 'net.

I've been struggling with the unbound object frame for hours now, and continue to get errors. Can someone here give me some pointers on this?

Thanks
Karen

I donno if this can be done or not but have u tried the power point technique?? It's listed here somewhere

hum hum ... can't you just add a Flash ActiveX element to a form ? Too long ago since I touched Access ...

Thanks. I'll try to find that power point technique.

Yes, Ricod, that's what I've been trying to do with the unbound object frame. Some graphics show up when I embed the fla, but of course, not the animation. Access just yells at me when I try to embed an swf.

I'm sure it's simple, and I'm just missing something on how to register flash, but I'm really stumped!

But I'll try searching for power point and see what comes up. Thanks again.
