Kurt, I thought that, but the browser really doesn't care where the files are, it will navigate to them wherever they are.
As for embedding them in a general field ... well that will end in tears as you get bloat on the memo file part of the dbf - been there, got the teeshirt!!! Also, general fields are notoriously unreliable and if you have to do it this way then simply hold a link to the external file as opposed to holding the encapsulated video. That is of course unless you want to hold them as byte screams (BLOBS) on a SQL Server, in which case that works fine and no chance of data sizes being too large if you are careful even with SQL express editions or postgress/MySQL.

I was thinking Gary has Pics and MP4 Videos on his HD that he wants to access in this app. Of course, I could be wrong. If so - I think that the MP4 can be stored in a General field - although I haven't personally done it. But - I'm sure Gary will clarify. And - Hey Gary - good to see you popping up in the group here again - hadn't heard much from you for a while (well, except I saw you made a reply back last month to another thread)... -K- -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dave Crozier Sent: Tuesday, October 13, 2015 10:56 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: MP4 Gary, Why not embed the Web page in a form. oForm = CREATEOBJECT("form") With oForm .Width=500 .Height=500 .Show() .AddObject("oIE","olecontrol","shell.explorer.2") .oIE.Width = .Width .oIE.Height = .Height .oIE.Visible = .t. .oIE.navigate2("http://www.google.com";) Set Step On EndWith *Read events -----Original Message----- From: ProFox [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Gary Sent: 13 October 2015 15:53 To: [email protected] Subject: MP4 Is there a tool or container in fox pro9 that I can insert an .mp4 movie.
