I've been developing a Flash application that will be running on a touch screen monitor installed in a hospital. The touch screen is run by a Windows machine. I'm afraid I don't know much about the Windows world. I'd like to have my Flash application launch in Flash Player every time the cpu is rebooted so the client never has to worry about manually doing it. Could someone give me some pointers? I guess I start out by publishing a Windows Projector (.exe) file?
Thanks much!

There are a few ways you could do it. The way you suggested, an AIR application, use an HTA file. Those are the 3 ways that come to my mind, anyway.

I'd save it as a projector, then place a .bat file in the windows startup/login directory that calls up the file. I don't remember the exact command to place in the .bat, or the exact path to the startup folder, but it's about a 20 second affair nonetheless :P
