My boss would like me to create a digital archive of scanned photos from our communications department. He insists that it’s “fun like a flash site” with movement and a not so code driven look.

I am wondering if with the combination of flash/actionscript, xml (or any other language people can point me towards) will I be able to move/copy files and/or rename them?

Essentially, can a projector file or swf ran in browser move another file (jpg for example)?

Thanks,
