ActionScript whizzes…

I am still blocked on this problem. I have customized a hangman game I got from the Flash 8 Bible. It’s working fine, BUT…the teachers I work with need some modifications.

1. the **Latin** teacher wants the letters **J** and **V** omitted from the selectable letters.

2. the **French** teacher wants things ADDED, like **?** marks, **`** and **’** and **-** marks, not to  
mention a whole host of French vowels with accents.

I’ve included the .zip of the files.

I know it’s the **GameController.AS** file which holds the code.

Specifically:

```auto

// create alphabet as text and buttons
    private function createAlphabet():Void {
        mcAlphabet = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mcAlphabet", 1);
        var nXPos:Number = 0;
        for (var i:Number = 65; i <= 90; i++) {
            var sLetter:String = String.fromCharCode(i);
            var cgl:GameLetter = GameLetter(mcAlphabet.attachMovie("GameLetter", "cgl_" + sLetter, mcAlphabet.getNextHighestDepth(), {_x: nXPos, letter: sLetter}));
            cgl.addEventListener("click", Delegate.create(this, onLetterClicked));
            nXPos += 14;
        }
    }

```

I also know from my research that it’s the

```auto
 for (var i:Number = 65; i <= 90; i++) {

```

line we’re looking at, because 65 is A and 90 is Z. \*(so the instruction is to list A - Z) \*

Now how to omit **J** and\*\* V\*\* and include the specific marks like **?** , **`** , \*\*’ \*\*and **-** … ??

Thanks folks - I’m a lowly computer teacher, I REALLY appreciate your help!
