    Hi, download a copy of Flash Studio PRO and you can connect your local database with just 1 simple FSCommand. You'll find some great examples (and full source code) at http://www.multidmedia.com/downloads

    I hope this helps!

    If your database is small and you only need search (read only) capability then you might want to look at storing the data in XML format. The advantage to this approach is that you can do everything in Flash.

    If you need update capabilities or your database would be too slow to search in XML format then you probably want to look at one of the third party applications listed below. Most of them provide some form of database support.

    SWF Studio http://www.northcode.com
    Jugglor http://www.***********.com
    FlashAnts http://www.flashants.com
    Flash 'N Pack http://www.flashnpack.com
    SWFKit http://www.swfkit.com
    LPFlashEX http://www.logicplus.com.hk

    SWF Studio provides a plugin that gives you access to any ADO data source which covers all of the major database vendors like SQL Server, MS Access, Oracle, etc and even includes free database technologies like MySQL (Note: MySQL is only free for non-commercial use).

    You can find out more about ADO on the Microsoft web site in the ADO Programmer's Guide
