Hello,

Does anyone have any idea’s how i would solve this problem in flash?

I want to load a short .txt file into flash and take each single word out individually and create a word list from the words in the file. I want Special characters to be removed so they are ommited from the word list.

Bit of a large thing to get help with but any help would be gladly recieved, any ideas ?

Thanks,

skid :nerd:
