how can i have flash 5 read .txt files and use them?

[ouest_cote]

I'm building a Flash website for a band, and they want an easy way that they can update their page (since they don't have any experience with flash). I wanted to know if anybody knew how i could have flash 5 read a .txt file in the same folder on the internet domain, and display that text in the movie (that way they would only have to change the .txt files to update their site with new gigs and news, etc).

I would really appreciate it if someone could help me out here, thanks!

read up on the #include action in the Flash Help files

#include "myText.txt"

etc..

but remember, with this youll have to make everything dynamic and ready to handle any length of text =) just a suggestion..
