Hi everybody and thanx 2 Seretha Blaze and lostinbeta.  
I am stil searching 4 this.If anybody has an answer.  
…  
I have an external text file which has 1 line code:  
&name= welcome to Mihira…  
In the flash movie the mc on the time has this code:  
name.loadVariable(“name.txt”);  
thats it.here 'name’is the mc and the external file name is name.txt.  
Now if I want 2 display,say 100 names scrolling one after another in 1 single line it is not possible to stretch the textField box endlessly.So, I need a script so that 100 names(or whatever) can scroll horizontally in a loop like the “marquee” in HTML.Its like the news headlines scrolling at the TV screen.Only I need to change the text in the text file to update it.
