Hi,

This is a message related to Compact Framework 2.0. I have posted the
same message in CF group also. But i am just re-posting it here, just
in case if some one has any ideas about it. Thanks.

I saw Mr.Alex Feinman's webcast regarding "COM and DOT Interop in CF2"
at http://blog.opennetcf.org/afeinman/PermaLink,guid,1dfc3c39-d3cc-4faa-b5f6-cb5c9aed61dd.aspx

I have a question regarding the section on hosting activex controls in
CF2.0. I tried out what he had suggested and I was able to
successfully host a Flash player activex control for PPC inside a
CF2.0 C# application. But I am running into one problem.


I am building a projector application for a Windows CE 5.0 device. So
my requirement is that I need to embed the flash movie inside my
application. I tired to set the EmbedMovie property in the designer
and also specify the path of the flash file (I gave the path on the
development PC where the actual swf file is stored, assuming it is
going to embed it in the application during design time) for the Movie
property. But this does not embed the movie inside the application.



Is there something I am missing or is this not possible when we host
an activex control in CF2.0 by the method he had suggested?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jothishankar
