A friend recently came to me with desire to update his existing flash website that was built by someone else.

Off the top of my head I know that I can’t edit anything without the raw .fla files and replacing them.

Is there anything else I can do, any other options to go about this? Or is it as simple as not being able to do it without the original .fla files?
