I’m not sure if I understand you correctly, but if your swf file doesn’t have any stop actions placed at the beginning then it should automatically play once loaded. ---

I am quite new with Flash and I really hope that you guys could help me out. I was told that autorun.inf could help but I am not quite sure how to make it work. Now, that’s the problem! ☹ ---

If you are autostarting from a cd place the autorun.inf file outside of the folder to your project ex. if your project was in a folder named “cd”, when you viewed the contents of the compact disc you would see a folder named cd (which sould contain your project) and a file named “autorun.inf” which would contain the following [autorun] open=cd he path to your file here.html hope this helps ---
