Well, I sent that last email a little premature. I should have researched a
little better. It seems that there is a knowledgebase item on the issue I am
having (No Extended properties for the Flash ActiveX control.)

If you have this issue because you have a newer version (9E or later) of the
Flash Player installed, you can get around it like this:

1. Drag out the Flash Media Player from the catalog onto your page.

2. Assign the appropriate Flash file in the extended properties
panel.

3. Ungroup the Flash Media Player in the Book Explorer window.

4. Rename the OCX Shockwave ID object to something like
"FlashControl". You MUST do this or you can use the AE on it.

5. Delete the other parts of the media player.

You should now have the same activeX object on your page as someone with an
earlier version of Flash that can just drag one out using the OLE extension.

You have to do this if you want to use Execute Method with the Flash movie.
