Firstly it should be LoadVars note the case. Another thing is it is generally a good idea to put the load call after you define the onLoad handler. This way if the file loaded immediately it would still find the onLoad handler defined.


on (release) {
	loadText = new LoadVars ();
	loadText.onLoad = function (bSuccess) {
		if (bSuccess) {
			mailing.text = this.input;
		};
	};

	loadText.load ("mailing.txt");
};
