Actionscript error - help required

programming flash
1

Hi

I picked up an old flash file recently - probably coded in flash 5

but i use MX and when publishing I get the following error:



Symbol=Symbol 105, Layer=Action Layer, Frame=1: Line 32: ';' expected
         _n2.maximum_word_length = -1.#INF00E+000;

The code around that line is:



var _n2 = this;
    _n2.a_list = new Array();
    _n2.maximum_word_length = -1.#INF00E+000;

Now I asked the guy I got it from and all he could tell me was that

-1.#INF00E+000

Is probably part of the old action scripting and ill have to find the new alternative

Is this true and if yes what would be the “new” substitute for the above?

Thanks
