Hi all,

I made a project(learning courseware for kids) in flash MX and want to distribute on a CD. what I want is When user runs the course it (.htm or script) should check whether flash player is installed or not. if its not there then it should prompt the user to install it which i m planning to distribute in my CD but i dont have any idea how can it be done…  
could u guys help me. any help will be appreciated…  
regards

if you run the .html file that published by Flash, it automatically controls the Flash Player is installed or not…  
besides,u can publish the flash movie as a Projector…and everyone can run your movie without the flash player.
