If you want to be able to edit the data after setting the sharedobject path

mydata = sharedobject.getLocal(“database”);

retrieve:

name=mydata.data.name;

set:

mydata.data.name=name

when setting flush:

mydata.flush()

though preferably only do this when you need to as to many flushes make your computer growl at you 🙂

Other options include a database application like mySQL with a php front end to retrieve the data
