SWF and variables

Currently I’m tryin to do catalog on CD using flash. There will be 15 pages of items w/ the selections. The coding I’m using for their options is from this:http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/components.htm

Now my question is, since I can’t use a DB because it’s on a CD, I have to pass the variables through flash. But when they are done making all their selections how do I make an externally loaded SWF using this command:

[AS]{
getURL(“7072summary.swf”, “_level1”);
}[/AS]

read the final values that were selected on the specified pages?

I’ve read lots of the threads concering passing variables and none of them helped me.

Can anyone help?
Also if anyone knows of any way to hold a DB on a CD and be able to write to it as well as read from it lemme know :thumb:
