Hi i’m totally new to flash and was wondering if it is possible to create a button that activates your email account with your adress in the send to bar. I know that using html you can use the [mailto:you@youremail.com](mailto:you@youremail.com)" command, but I want to create a simliar thing in a projector file used on a cd. Is it possible?

if you are making a flash button, you can probably use
on(release){
getURL("mailto:you@youremail.com");
}
put that code on the button and import it into your director movie.
I know it works in a flash movie that is viewed through a browser, no guarantee that it will work in director though.
Good luck,

No i’m afraid that only works in browsers. I want it to work in a flash window/projector file and don’t seem to be able to work it out.
