Flash Objects in a Access Form

If I insert a shockwave movie into a form, say a button. Whenever I clicked
the button, how would I detect the click to execute a procedure like a
regular button created in form design.
 
You should see an On_Click event in the properties for the movie.

I don't have that option all I see is
OnUpdated
OnEnter
OnExit
OnGotFocus and
OnLostFocus
 
Setting Tabstop to False and using On_Enter will give much the same effect
from the users point of view.

I see, thanks!

Does anyone know how to link the Shockwave/Flash ActiveX control to a table
field in MS Access 2003

The control itself only has these properties for the Data property:

OLE Class: Shockwave Flash Object
Class: ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash.1
Enabled: Yes

I have this on the 'On event' Property for the form:

Private Sub obj_flashmovie_Enter()
Me.obj_flashmovie.Movie = Application.CurrentProject.Path + "\DataTest.swf"
End Sub

but this is always assuming that the flash file is in the same directory as
the Access .Mdb

what i really want is for the table field to reference where the Flashfile
is; for example:

D:\database\Flashfiles\test.swf

very irritating that between them, Micosoft/Adobe/Macromedia couldn't put a
native data control on the ActiveX object...
