If no local file

[Bob Achgill]

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

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.

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:
