I’m trying to load some text from an external source in the text field of a draggable window…  
I’m starting to learn flash right now, so what I did is download a code for the draggable window and then I used the tutorial on loading text from an external source to try and make it work with the draggable window…  
I’m sure I’m missing something here…  
any help would be appreciated…

thanks
