If no local file

Two part question for my windows application ...

1) Is there a after-the-fact way to know if the Flash
file did not play because the file does not exist? Maybe
some handle I can check?

Also, if the file is not there...

2) How can I call an FTP file copy function to go get the
missing file from my repository on a FTP server and copy
it to my local drive? I looked in help for Visual
Basic.Net and did not see any FTP support.

AxShockwaveFlash1.Movie = CurDir() + "\"
+ "MyFlashAnimation.swf" ' play Flash animation
AxShockwaveFlash1.Play()
AxShockwaveFlash1.Loop = True

Hi Bob,

The answer on the first question is to look at the DirectoryInfo class on
MSDN
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...html/frlrfsystemiodirectoryinfoclasstopic.asp

For the second some additions to Mad

If there are some duplicates, check that for yourself.
Have especialy a look at Indy because that is not only recommended by Kudzu.

VB.NET:

Click to expand...

What Flash file? You can use 'System.IO.File.Exists' to check if a file
exists.

There is an interesting new article about .NET + Flash available online
here:
