Well I asume the 7000 - 8000 data files are currently residing somewhere?? i.e on a database like MS Access or a MySQL db on a server?

Hi all

With the help of a FK member I recently put together some A.S which formats text in flash as programs like MS Word does.

Here's the link - only 3kb format text

shikes, sorry Mirandir... didn't realise you'd put together a .fla. We must have posted about the same time.

I played with the code until I got it working.

Thanks for your community spirit...

Managed to sort it out, playing makes perfect! :D

Cheers for your help!

Hi, thanks for all your help Mirandir.

Unfortunately still can't get the idea of where the code is meant to go and at what point it's called?

Can you shed any more light at all? Thanks for...

perhaps this open source movie will give you some hints -

you could use something similar to this but...

Bit more detail needed.

this may be what you are talking about?

sorry fella, your link doesn't work???

Sounds like you are talking about inertia, where the pics or menu etc accelerates and decelerates depending on the point you are currently at.

OK thanks Mirandir, I see the function you're on about. Can't see where I'd put the Selection.getBeginIndex() ???

HI everyone.

Probably not as easy as the subject title sounds... :(

Don't forget everything I want to do will be done in Flash, just mimicking the MicroSoft Word interface.

What I want to...

Can it be done???

More detail: I would like to know if the advanced functions of flash 5 A/S gives you the ability to customise the right click menu.

I know how to disable the right click...

Need to learn one of these languages ASAP.

Which do you think would be the quickest, easiest, most beneficial, to learn??

Hi people

You've probably all seen these flash intros with endless quotes of info snippets regarding the web, e.g-

"More than 60 million people use the internet"

1st you need to explain to me where your random number actionscript is in relation to the frame labels.

It sounds like a targetting issue as you say it works when all the actions are all in the...

Put this action on the print button

on (release) {
printAsBitmap ("0", "bmovie");
}

Sorted the problem after working through it more logically as you've stated above. Problem was with where the sk.php was located on the server.... it doesn't seem to like it anywhere...

Thanks for the quick response Kory but unfortunately that hasn't fixed the problem???

How can I simple see whether the script is the problem, the flash or the server??
