Javier,
There is some info at https://www.vidmore.com/video-playback/swf-player/
on how to play SWF without Flash and also a downloadable player. Also,
there is https://downloads.digitaltrends.com/swf-player/windows.

Thank you, Mike,
I am a big fan of IrfanView and have used for many years. This is the
message I get:
In any case, it might not help me since I need it to display inside a
Forms window…unless IrfanView has command prompts that can do a
conversion on the fly. I will look further into it.
I might have to create a C++ application that takes the raw data and
generates the graph in a picture format. Like I said, It is used in
just one place in the application and R:Charts would be way of an
overkill.

Javier,
I have used Irfanview for more than a dozen years. Here is the list
of File formats that it supports:

Javier,
I presume you are referring to Adobe’s ShockWaveFlash file format,
usually for small animated files. Flash player used to be included
in most browsers but has become outdated and a security risk, so
no longer. Flash player plugins are apparently still available
for some browsers such as Chrome and Firefox, but apparently not
recommended due to security risks, especially Mac’s Safari
browser. SWF files can be converted, and will also play using VLC
player which is usually a free download. See link below for more
information. My guess is conversion is probably the answer.

Hopes this helps with the blues clues.

Displaying SWF pictures

I am working on an older application that uses SWF pictures
generated by an external application that is run from line
command. In the pasts I just placed a web browser in the form, and
it displayed the SWF picture without any problem; I believe it
used the MS Explorer.
Apparently, the new browser, Edge, no longer supports SWF files,
nor do any of the other browsers as the format has been
discontinued. I tried several format converters, but none seems to
work with this flavor of SWF.
Is there anyway to display a SWF file in and R:Base form? I might
be able to get the picture/graph as an Excel graph. Is there any
way to display an Excel graph in a form.
The last option would be to get the graph as a data set and the
use R:Charts to generate the graph. Since the graph is only used
in one form, seems like R:Charts would be an overkill.
On a separate note, is there a way to globally remove the design
password from all forms? I seem to remember there was a way to do
it but not having used R:base for a while now, I am somewhat
rusty. I have over 200 forms and I would prefer to do them all at
once; I seem to remember adding the design password to all the
forms globally…but I could be wrong.. ☹
Any ideas or suggestion will be appreciated.
