    AS3 CS4 Why has my swf stopped publishing?

    I have been working on this app for a month now: I have got to the last stages of polishing and debugging, made a change (I changed a variable mc.height to a number to test something) pressed Ctrl+Enter and suddenly the swf isn't publishing. I have absolutely no idea why.

    I've rebooted the computer, still not working
    Tested with a different file: Ctrl+Enter works with that.
    If I go to debug, I get "swf file not found, debug terminated". It's looking for the file in the correct url, but it's just not there.
    I tried: File -> Publish swf. I did get an swf file, but it was 2KB and only showed a white screen.
    The next time I tried Ctrl+Enter, this file was deleted.

    I'm getting a bit scared. Any suggestions that might save my work (and my imminent deadline) would really help.

    Thanks

    resolved

    Panic over! One of the images broke somehow and was replaced by a *massive* red square. I managed to discover it by copying every frame individually into a new file, then burrowing down and deleting bits in order until it stopped being broken.

    Fortunately I had a copy of the relevant movie clip and could copy that in, but it was a very slow job.

    Deadline saved.
