Can your Add a SWF File to a form?

[macftm]

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to add a swf file type for a form.

At present I am able to add jpg's to the form using the following table and an image object using the following code:

Table: tblGraphComm

PupilID - text
PupilFile - text (holds the location of the file on a computer/server)

Form: frmGraphComm


Image object name = PupilImage

Code:

Private Sub Form_Current()
PupilImage.Picture = PupilFile
End Sub


I know that I have to change the property of the Image object but I do not know how to.

The main aim of the form is for pupils to add the work that they have created using flash into the database.

Any suggestions would be most grateful.

Regards

I dont think Access supports flash files, the only way I can see you getting this to work is if your using Web pages/Data Access pages to enter/display your data.

If its just an animation you could try converting to a gif
