Sorry, this posting was supposed to be for Flash 8. I goofed.

Hi:

I’m working on a 3MB Flash file which is a simulation. Everything works fine until I try to preview or publish. All of a sudden it consumes 272MB of RAM. Finally, it does publish.

Our Tech Guy says “something is wrong with the FLA file”. However, I can’t figure it out. I’m getting no error msgs in Flash.

Can you help? Please go here to download the FLA in  
a Zip file. [http://www.d-mag.org/testing/](http://www.d-mag.org/testing/)

Your input is greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,  
Loren
