Embedding flash.swf in WebBrowser1 errors.
Hello everyone,
My little VB.net code doesn't seem to work,
Code Snippet
PrivateSub Button1_Click(ByVal senderAs System.Object,ByVal eAs System.EventArgs)Handles Button1.Click
WebBrowser1.Navigate("http://www.x.com/y.swf") 'the button to launch the URL.
EndSub
When I replace with this
It woks just fine.
So what do I need to change in the code to allow swf extension usage to be ran from a vb program? Any help would be appreciated.

If you need to open a swf file in your code, I think this post will be helpfull http://www.thescripts.com/forum/thread457640.html
Here's a work around to use the webbrowser control to do your task:
You can make a code that writes a local html file then use the webbrowser to open this file.
The html file will do nothing except playing the flash file
