saving variables???????????

[jasper_dawg]

Hello, anyone knows how to save variables to a text file on harddrive, using mx actionscript? Without opening a dos environment by using fscommand("command.com","yada yaada"). I can do it with flash 5, but it doesn't seem to work with mx. URGENT HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

How were you doing this in version 5? If you were using undocumented features, I think macromedia removed them.

In Flash 5 i used fscommand("save","myfile.txt"); , this used to save all the variables in the _root to a text file, myfile.txt, this could be done with your swf and exe projectors. How can i do this in mx? Do you know an alternate way?

There is something called sharedObject in flash MX rad about it

Hey guru, the flash6 player doesn't support it! if however, you have the flash5 player, the above fscommand code will work!
