AVI as a VB Resource

Hi, I want to use the Animation Control to play an avi movie in one of my forms.


When I ship this this, I want the AVI to be part of the executable, not a standalone file. How can I do this?


I have put an AVI in my exe as a custom resource, how can Iplay this then?


Thanks!

Hi


I've never used the Animation control in VB, but I have created a animation window using the Win32API which uses AVI's in a resource file - take a look at :

Thanks Chris, that looks perfect! I'll give it a try.. I already got it working using another OCX I fount on the CCRP(Common Control Replacement Page), but your solutionlooks like it will be lighter.
