Thanks Adelle. I already found a workaround for this, and, like you say; It is difficult to show vast quantities of data from a DB application in FLASH, so the webbrowser control via a generated HTML page is the best option it seems.
An excellent tutorial on using the FLASH activeX within a VB app is here. (for those intrested) http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/mx/flash/articles/flash_vb.pdf This is particularly useful, since many would agree that the needs of the graphical capabilites of an apps GUI nowadays is becoming more and more important. For example, you could use FLASH to replace the standard menu etc. cool rnd ----- Original Message ----- From: "Adelle L.
