Flash components ?

[reb0101]

hey guys, I'm new to here and certainly new to .NET. I knew just about with VB6 to be dangerous. Now confused as can be with .NET.
This should be simple to most of you though.
in VB6 I could add a Flash Component and then insert a flash .swf file in a VB form.
any clue how to do it in .NET?
also, ever heard of VB Skinner?
here is a link:

pretty much the same thing there. download it and you can use it from toolbox. will this work with Visual Basic 2005 Express edition?
can't find a way for either one to work

Use the contextmenu on the toolbox and click "choose items..", in the COM tab of that dialog you can select between the installed activeX controls.

If you have Macromedia Shockwave Player installed you should see "Shockwave Flash Object" in the list, and after adding the control you can set the Movie property to a file path and play with Play method. This worked fine in VS2003, but in VS2005 I also had use the Add Reference dialog and add "Ole Automation" from COM tab for it to work. (the error before I added Ole Automation was "missing stdole")
