    Exporting timeline label names as a list?

    In Flash CS5 Pro, I'm working with a movieclip timeline that has hundreds of icons with keyframe label names. I need to get a list of all of the label names in the timeline, in some kind of text format. Is there any possibly way to generate a text file with a list of all of the label names on the timeline? This might be a longshot, but I figured it's worth asking before manually writing hundreds of label names.

    Thank you!

    Since there is no actionscript code to retrieve a Frame's label, no, you cannot do this. The closest thing would be to use the Movie Explorer, open it through Window->Movie Explorer (Alt+F3), turn ON the 5th button from left to right (the one whose tooltip says, Show frames and layers), click on the drop-down icon (Top-Right of the Movie Explorer window), and click on Copy All Text to Clipboard. This will not only give you the Frame labels, but also their respective Frame numbers and where they're nested.
    I am back, guys ... and finally 18 :P

    BRING BACK THE OLD DESIGN!! OR AT LEAST FIX THE AS TAGS
