Hello, am a n00b at autoit, i would like help to put a SWF into a GUI window. Can somebody help?

Here is one I found by searching the forums

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
$oRP = ObjCreate("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash.1")
GUICreate ("PacMan", 820, 600, -1, -1)
$GUIActiveX = GUICtrlCreateObj( $oRP, 10, 10 , 800 , 580)

With $oRP; Object tag pool
    .bgcolor = "#000000"; change background color to white FFFFFF
    .Movie = 'http://www.80smusiclyrics.com/games/pacman/pacman.swf'; the wave file from inet / could be on disk
    .ScaleMode = 2
    .Loop = True
    .wmode = "Opaque"; Opaque / transparent
;.Stop / .Play
EndWith

GUISetState ();Show GUI

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
        Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop
    EndSelect
WEnd

$oRP = 0; FREE THE OBJECT
GUIDelete ()
Exit

I'm running this through beta run and am getting an error:

Line 6

With $oRP

Error: Illegal text at the end of statement (one statement per line)

Only Object-type variables allowed in a WITH statement!

Any help.

Edit: I dropped the $oRP to the next line after the "With" and now AutoIt3.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. Now what?

I have just tried running it with the latest Beta and get no errors. Please check that you have copied and pasted correctly.

Did it again and it is copied exactly. Could it be because I have both beta and release on the computers. They are in two different dir..

You have to make sure your running in Beta, In SciTe use Alt+F5 rather than just F5 or Tools / Beta Run. This is a most common mistake.

That's what I did. Now I'm looking in the error at the bottom of the scite thing and this is what it says:

C:\Documents and Settings\Money\Desktop\Gui test\pacman.au3 (2) : ==> Unknown function name.: 
$oRP = ObjCreate("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash.1") 
$oRP = ^ ERROR
->AutoIT3.exe ended.rc:1
>Exit code: 1   Time: 0.721

This is after I moved the oRP back, as it is in the original.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
$oRP = ObjCreate("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash.1")
GUICreate ("PacMan", 820, 600, -1, -1)
$GUIActiveX = GUICtrlCreateObj( $oRP, 10, 10 , 800 , 580)

With $oRP; Object tag pool
    .bgcolor = "#000000"; change background color to white FFFFFF
    .Movie = 'http://www.80smusiclyrics.com/games/pacman/pacman.swf'; the wave file from inet / could be on disk
    .ScaleMode = 2
    .Loop = True
    .wmode = "Opaque"; Opaque / transparent
;.Stop / .Play
EndWith

GUISetState ();Show GUI

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
        Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop
    EndSelect
WEnd

Well I ran it for the first time using Beta 3.1.118 and 3.1.123 and it ran just fine just like this:
#include <GUIConstants.au3>
$oRP = ObjCreate("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash.1")
GUICreate ("PacMan", 820, 600, -1, -1)
$GUIActiveX = GUICtrlCreateObj( $oRP, 10, 10 , 800 , 580)

With $oRP; Object tag pool
    .bgcolor = "#000000"; change background color to white FFFFFF
    .Movie = 'http://www.80smusiclyrics.com/games/pacman/pacman.swf'; the wave file from inet / could be on disk
    .ScaleMode = 2
    .Loop = True
    .wmode = "Opaque"; Opaque / transparent
;.Stop / .Play
EndWith

GUISetState ();Show GUI

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
        Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop
    EndSelect
WEnd

$oRP = 0; FREE THE OBJECT
GUIDelete ()
Exit

Edit:

You know, as many problems as you are having with Beta, I would suggest uninstalling AutoIt and doing a fresh install of both.

Edit: I unitstalled, wiped the registry, reinstalled, same problem. I guess I'll just forget about this part of what I want to do.

This is just a guess but it could have something to do with the version of Flashplayer installed on the computer? I would make sure you have the latest version installed.
