You can use the Process class to open the avi.

Hi Yossi,

In addition to Tim's suggestion of letting Windows fire up whatever program is assigned to the avi-format you can load the Media Player COM object. In visual studio Add Reference, select the COM tab and locate Windows Media Player on the list.
