To make your own flash player you have understand the swf file format and translate it into instructions for your program to use.
If you are looking to just put flash content into your program you can either use a browser engine and link it to the flash files or you can use Adobe's COM controls in your application.

VB is a programming language, and C++ is a different programming language.
Depending on the runtime you are using they can provide different advantages.

Nailing my feet to the floor is easier than using my own muscles to balance, but you don't see me doing that :)

yes i do here it is.

1) Create a new windows forms application.
2) Right Click on your Toolbox and click choose Items
3) Go to the COM Tab and check the box next to shockwave Flash Object.
4) There will now to be a component in your toolbox called Shockwave Flash Object.
5) Insert A Panel and dock it at the top.
6) In the panel add A TextBox and A Button
7) Add the new Shockwave Flash Object to your form and chnage the dock style to fill.
7) Double click the button and in the code type:
Code: Select all
AxShockwaveflashobject1.movie = Textbox1.text
8) Debug the project and in the textbox type the path of the flash file and then press the button.

Note: This is the most simplest way of making a flash player but this is just to get you started and you can add items like an open file dailog when you click the textbox so you can browse the file rather than having to type the path.

Hope this Helps you m8, If you have a problem please tell me and i may be able to help.

To make a flash player I would suggest using Flash.
If you want to play a flash movie you could use mandai or Un Kn0 Wn's ways.

if you're using 64-bit, to view the flash thingy, go to tools ->options -> show all settings -> projects and solution -> general -> tick show advance build options -> go to build -> configuration manager -> under active solution platform, choose x86 and you're done
