im hoping this is something very simple. like in dreamweaver when you make a link that opens an email program to write an eamil. can you do this in flash? i just want to have some text (the email address) function as a link that opens you email program. this is quite common in html and im curious if this can be done in flash. please anyone if you can help me i would really appreciate it.

thanks
