External Text Loading w/ Scroll Component

[kerrycorcoran]

I am using the Scroll Component (Flash MX 2004) and have it working by typing the text in the field - although I select Dynamic text, the text is permenant. My question is how do I load the text from an external TXT file to in relationship to use with the scroll component?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,

Kerry

I thought that this link maybe useful to you when loading text files.

This is for proper HTML syntax/usage in Flash

This is for using a scrollbar with dynamically loaded text.
