Hello,

I am using Flash MX2004.

I have problem in loading dynamic external text with languages other than English to swf file.

When I use Traditional Chinese Language (e.g. Big 5) in the external text file, the text will appear to be strange code in the dynamic text field of the swf file.

I tried to change the “Edit Character Options” next to the var field to "Traditional Chinese (All). The situation is still the same.

Please help.

Thanks and best regards

Alex
