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

Try this instead:
[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/flash\_php\_mysql.asp](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/flash_php_mysql.asp)
Replace anything that talks about the php script with your [asp.net](http://asp.net) script.

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.

No, not [ASP.net](http://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.

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. 🙂
