hi, you will have to excuse my ignorance and laziness here.

but my question is; does anyone know of any tutorials or can explain easy how to import text from say, a word document into flash?

ie. an easy way to update a header and news page in a flash site without entering flash to do it.

thanks in advance,

chris.
