It’s a Swish question - I’m hoping this is the best place to pose this.

I learned how to make an .swf with a transparent background for IE, but now I need to do it for the Shockwave Flash component in Visual Basic 6.

I’m using Swish, anyone know if I can get Swish to export without the background (transparent)?
