    For example:
    [code]
    QAxWidget *flash = new QAxWidget(ui->widget);
    flash->resize(740, 580);
    flash->setControl(QString::fromUtf8("{d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000}"));
    flash->dynamicCall("LoadMovie(long,string)", 0, QDir::currentPath()+"/file.swf");
    [/code]
    ^ works

    [code]
    QAxWidget *flash = new QAxWidget(ui->widget);
    flash->resize(740, 580);
    flash->setControl(QString::fromUtf8("{d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000}"));
    flash->dynamicCall("LoadMovie(long,string)", 0, "file.swf");
    [/code]
    ^ doesn't work

    I run the untitled1.exe from the same folder as the file.swf but the swf never loads.
    Does it look somewhere else for file.swf other than the working directory?

      Not really Qt related, I'd say, but more a topic for a Flash forum, isn't it?

      Qt/QAxWidget is just a container/proxy for the underlying native classes, the actual work is done by the latter.

        It seemed like a Qt problem, any other time I've used the flash object in other languages it would check the working directory for the file.

        If I posted this in a flash forum, they would tell me to post it in a Qt forum.

          In this case I would suspect that the current environment (especially current directory) is not passed to the native control - for whatever reason.
