Hi,

I hope this isnt a stupid question, but I am having problem trying to get my Flash program to do something.

I have a library file of a match stick man… What I want, it for every customer in my customer table of my database file, I want a match-stick man (instance) to appear on the stage…

Is this possible…?

What I mean is, if I use a getURL, which calls my ASP file which simply returns the number of customers (i.e. records) I have in my Database…

So if I have 10 customers, I want ten men to appear at random… Is this possible. Any help would be much appreciated…

Thanks.
