Database Access with Flash

I want to show a table with names from a database in Access XP. How is the simpliest way to do this with Flash MX

Well, do u have a server-side script, ASP for example. And offcourse it could be done using LoadVars object in actionscript. :slight_smile:

And if you have a ASP.NET script. What do you have to then? Are there any easy tutorials on this you know?

Thanks

Check this tutorial:

Thanks for the tutorial.

But I’m not very common with these things. So i have this question?

Can I find a worked out (SIMPLE!!!) example of accessing with Flash MX Acesss. So a real .fla file and the database .

Thanks

Try this instead:

Replace anything that talks about the php script with your asp.net script.

Okay, looks good, I will read it.

Thanks for the information

I have read your last tutorial. I learn more and more about it.

I have a question:

What does I have to do if I want to reproduce a TABLE with some information for example a few records from a table in a database.

Did’nt work with access or asp before, sorry. :-\

Did you work with asp.net before?

No, not ASP.net, but a lot of my clients utilize Access Db, so we use ASP to communicate with it…

I also use ASP to write text files which Generator uses to make my Flash 5 files dynamic.

Ah, so there exists a whole book about the .NET integration in Flash MX. Hmmm, wil search some reviews of that book.

Just looked at a sample chapter. Amazing and just what I needed!!! Thanks!!

Yup,
I got hooked on it :)… i got a good deal from amazon on it… saved about 20 $ … ( from the canadian amazon , cause i live live in canada)

Don’t forget that it teaches you the integration with remoting, which cost’s about $1000 US.

Keep in mind that remoting is powerful, but am waiting for macromedia to integrate it with php. :slight_smile:
