Hey,

Can I be in an external actionscript file… let’s call it alpha.as …and I need to refer to some code that’s in another external AS file… beta.as …is there a way I can do that?

Both AS files naturally reside in the same folder, and are for the same FLA file.

Can this be done? Or am I crazy? It is Friday, after all.
