Hello people, I’ve searched all over internet and this forum to find a piece of code that creates a high score list of say, the 10 best scores for a Flash game, and stores it inside the .fla. (Is this even possible?)  
All I found was the following file:  
[http://www.nettrek.de/download/highscoreMitFlash.html](http://www.nettrek.de/download/highscoreMitFlash.html)  
(source fla [http://www.nettrek.de/download/highscoreMitFlash.zip](http://www.nettrek.de/download/highscoreMitFlash.zip))  
But when I try to ctrl-enter it from Flash 8, the program hangs and the swf just won’t open…

I’m aware of the fact it’d be much handier via PHP and a MySQL database, but I’m making a game for a contest in which it isn’t allowed to use any additional files (also no txt files) next to the main game swf ☹ Hopefully someone can help me out!
