Hi everyone, Can someone show me how to record a video of my program.

The easiest way is to use FRAPS (www.fraps.com). It will record video and audio so you can make very nice movies of your games in action. Barney

The demo of fraps only allows you to record 30secs ( I think ) at a time but you can import them into windows movie maker to gel them together and save as an mpg.

I've used Fraps, it's great, it's also what most people use to record other games such as warcraft or counterstrike too. Obviously there is a knock on affect on your performance when you use it but as long as you don't try recording at 1280x1024 resolution at 30fps you should be fine. I've used it to record my blitz games aswell as world of warcraft. It also takes screen shots, so you don't have the annoyance of adding the screenshot taking line of code into your game.
