Locate the Flash Movie
 Unfortunately, the Flash control does not have a
browse function to locate the movie
 You have to know the actual file path
–This is a long string of text such as C:\Documents
and Settings\RHED Pixel\Desktop\Chapter 4
\Sources\Video\Flash_Title.swf
–Be sure to figure out the location of your file
–If you right-click on a file, you can view its properties
–One of those properties is location; you can
highlight it and copy the text to your clipboard
–This contains the full path (minus the filename)
