.txt file question

Hello,

I have tried several methods in the past to bring up text into flash at various degrees. So far, I have had to have some variable attached with the text in the .txt file before it could be read by the flash file.

This time, I need a way I can assign the whole text file to be retrieved regardless of naming it. What I am doing is generating a track .txt file which reports songs being played with usually the artist and title. Everytime it updates it saves over itself so I don’t have the opportunity to assign a variable with the text.

Is there a way to achieve this in Flash without needing to assign a variable to the text before it is brought into flash?
