Running Dreamweaver 8 (with the upgrade to 8.0.2), when I attempt to insert Flash using the menu options nothing appears to happen, but when I look at the code the following has been inserted.

<!-- MENU-LOCATION=NONE -->

When I attempt to drag an exisiting SWF file from the file structure again nothing appears to happen but looking at the code, the following has been installed.

<!-- MENU-LOCATION=NONE -->
<html>
<head>

How do I resolve this? I have attempt a complete reload of Dreamweaver but no change. Have also reinstalled Flash 8 and Fireworks 8 just in case they where involved!

Any ideas, it's becoming a real pain now.

Ok, this may be a reach but try inserting a layer and dragging the .swf file into that layer, it always seems to work for me.....

Thanks that. Sadly still the same result. I must be missing something so very basic but I just can not spot it!!!

A real pain in the a**e
