[AS2 CS4 WIN] Access file in different folder

Hi, hoping you can help?

Due to reasons beyond my control, I need to be able to open an xml file located in a different folder on the same branch of the tree on a Windows client. The paths for the files are known; see example below.

Source Folder/File - D:\media\source\movie.swf
Data Folder/FIle - D:\media\data\data.xml

Source Folder - This is the folder & file where the swf is located & executed from.
Data Folder/File - This is the folder & file for the XML data file.

How would I reference the XML data file path in AS2 to be executed by my source SWF?

i.e. - dataXML_xml.load(“D:\media\data\data.xml”);

Thank you for your response.
