Good Evening,

I am new here and still fairly new to flash. Don’t konw if I am being stupid or not.

Just started working in CS5 (missed a few versions) and getting very frustrated. Don’t do much flash work so still a beginner. However what is frustrating me is that I have started to create my web flash animation, I have my company logo which is animated and music playing but for some reason whenever I put any text into the document and then test play (or export to swf) the text does not appear.

I have no idea what is happening. I have uploaded the project to [www.dhcd.co.uk/files/flash.zip](http://www.dhcd.co.uk/files/flash.zip) would some be able to take a look for me and tell me what I am doing wrong. All I have done is used the text tool to insert some plain static text. I have never had this problem in the past. Frame 170 is where the text begins.

Thanks,  
Max
