    flash exe fullscreen on windows startup

    Evening all

    I have created an AS2 flash .exe file which i need to run on startup of Windows. i have used
    Code:
    fscommand("fullscreen") = true; //edit -> oops, this is wrong! see northcode's post below!
    to make the window fullscreen on launch. I now need to make the .exe run as soon as Windows starts up.

    I have put it in the startup folder, but when the .exe launches, it is still windowed.

    Any ideas?



    Cheers.

    fscommand("fullscreen", "true") is the correct way to enter fullscreen mode, for those who might see this post and be confused.

    oops, sorry!

    the way i hacked it, by the way, was to call the fullscreen fscommand after a small delay. the exe residing on the machine downloads the latest version of the main app (where i put the fscommand), so it meant this delay is inherently in-built, but i'm sure there is a more elegant way out there somewhere!
