Post subject:  Running SWF files in presentations

I am trying to run swf files within my presentation. The swf file is interactive so the user needs to click on various buttons to use the flash animation. How should I do this?? The swf file is on aspire.cosmic-ray.org/labs/moon/lunar_phase3.swf though of course I have copied it to my hard drive.

Post subject:  Found solution

Tried running in browser but not that successful. It worked buit of course will have path problems when running on another machine. Tried Docview which worked with some swf files and not others. On the ones it didn't work with it gave script errors. This was on files that did work just fine as in above example. SOLUTION - as so often it was the permissions on Vista, go to file, edit permissions and set everything to full and voila - it all works.

Congrats on working that out. And thanks for posting back the pivotal issue for solution you found. Ah, Vista... somewhat like a parking valet.
