Ok lets say that i’ve got a flash projector file (or similar flash .exe file), and I need to allow the user to input a value which needs to be saved within the .exe and subsequently retreived every time the movie is fired up, how would I go about doing this? Is it possible with flash?

Hi,

Its possible what u r saying.  
Search for SharedObject in Flash that may give you some hint.

Nice one, thanks alot! I’m acutally going to be using this with a flash screensaver but i’m assuming that it’ll work just the same as in a projector file. Cheers 🙂
