Hi there the problem I have is:

I have a flash site that dynamicly imports its data from an XML file, mainly text. This is all fine but in my application I also want an edit area so the administrators can change the dynamic text and save the changes back to the XML file.

I have been told this cannot be done without a web technology such as PHP. That is fine if thats what I have to do but the only web technology avalable for this project is [ASP.NET](http://ASP.NET).

I cannot fined any tutorials anywere on how to do this with flash XML and [ASP.NET](http://ASP.NET). The XML is the main data storage and is not called from a data base. Does anyone know how to do this or any good tutroials as I fined alot in aimed at PHP and Flash that say it can be done as easy in [ASP.NET](http://ASP.NET) but do not say how. I also can fined lots on updating XML to be sent to a database but I just want to update some text in flash and save the updates back to my origonal xml file

Hope somone can help me im going crazy

If anyone needs more information jst ask Ill do my best

Lee

lee2006, thank you so much for your mini-instructions on how to do that. I’m using [asp.Net](http://asp.Net) 2.0 and was also getting frustrated by the vast amount of PHP only guides.
