Problem with flash and USB device

[miku00]

Hi, I go a little question, I'm making a presentation in flash AS 2.0, everything works fine but now my TA said the presentation would be managed with a USB device that have a next and back button.

So far I have a next back button on the scene, but now I have to use this device, so there is not gonna be a mouse to surf in the presentation.

What can I do?

Hi, just off the top of my head, I would guess the remote uses the left and right arrows to go next and back, or some variation. The remotes are mainly used for Powerpoint presentations.

So that being said, all you would need is a key listener and then go back and forward according to which button is pressed.

Thanks! Steven FN, it sounds very logical, I would've never guessed that one. So now the main problem is how should I do that in AS 2.0? any suggestions?
