You know if you implement a text file or xml file, et al, you will get a type cursor? Well, I was wondering if there was a way to not get that in Flash, or would the text have to be hard coded (I would have to edit the FLA to change any text)…

THanks…

I know you can do it in CSS easily… maybe Flash can use that? Unsure…
