Okay...i'm sorry. I'm an absolute newbie, but as hard as i try i just cannot find this answered anywhere properly.

I want to make a simple cross platform (PC & Mac) desktop button/menu in Flash that simply opens a selection of network folders.

I can do this really easily for a PC using the get url command on a PC, but i just can't seem to replicate this command on a Mac.

My only fear is that the info i did track down seems to say that from a Mac?? due to security reasons, you can only do this if you put everthing under a 'fscommand' subfolder and that's no use to me!
Is this correct?

If so, how come it's so easy to connect using a Flash button to any folder on our network drive on a PC?

I know this is absolutely moron level, but some advice would be greatly appreciated.
I just want to create a simple no-brainer button push for a number of people here to access certain folders that will be buried under difficult to find navigation otherwise for them.

many thanks , alvin
