Re: FLASH: Checking for ActiveX Controls

[Robert Koberg]

Hi Jeff,

Are you saying wanting the argument to use for AW, if so:


Substituting "Macromedia.AuthorwareShockwaveControl.1" for

"ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash" as the argument to CreateObject instead of

the flash thingie should work for Authorware.


For these kinds of things you can check in the registry at

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/CLSID, then look for your particular CLSID (class ID) and

go to VersionIndependantProgID key. this will give you the object ot check.

You can get the class id from AW, VB or Web apps that insert activeX

controls. The CLSID for Flash looks like this:

{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000}

    Do you have any idea where I can gather an ActiveX chek script - or a

modifiaction of the one below - so that I can send a non-Web Player

(Authorware) Active X user to a download page and a user who has the ActiveX

to another page?
