Alright, I know that onData is used to send the raw contents of a text file to a text field…but can it be used along the lines of #include?

I have a .txt file with contents:

```auto
 
some_var = 1;
some_other_var = 2;

```

and now when I load those variables using:  
[AS]  
loadText = new LoadVars();  
loadText.load(“vars.txt”);  
loadText.onData = function(src){  
//some function using src  
}[/AS]  
If I use: trace(src) in the onData function, I see the variables like I want them to be. How do I get those variables to be set as if they were written in the actual flash actionscript? I know how to do it with text string manipulations…but that isn’t an option for this.

Thanks for any help.
