positioning planets

[dreism]

Hi everybody,

Ive been assigned a little project by a friend i know nothing about....

I need create a little image/prog that imports positions of planets and the shifts these images accordingly....please see link below...it seems the image work is done for me here, please note i do not need the positions to move, i just need the flash to read some sort of a txt file that tells it which position on the ellipt the planets should be in when the flash opens? does that make sense? can anyone help?

any info at all will make me feel all warm and fuzzy!!!

cheers
dre
