Hi all,  
Now im notsure whether this should be posted for Flash 8 or Flash MX but i thought i’d ask the question here as i use Flash 8.  
Would anyone here know how to create an effect where text seems to write itself - as if someone was writing it with a pen or something?  
An example can be seen on this site where the title uses this really neat effect.  
Thanks in advance guys n gals.
