How about just using flash?

Nah flash is giving me major headaches at the moment, it’ll randomly decide not to save certain blocks of code when I click save.

I’ve already lost at least 10hrs to it backtracking through what I’ve done and replacing the lost code.

I recently installed MX 04 pro hoping that would solve the problem but is doing exactly the same thing.

Anyway some of these editors have some really useful features the Flash editor doesn’t have

i use editplus. http://www.editplus.com/

you might also wan’t to try PrimalScript. It supports code hinting, code completion, syntax highlightg, etc… you’ll have to pay for it after the trial though. http://www.sapien.com/primalscript.aspx
