Hey all,

Is this possible?

Have an XML that holds variables in place of hard-coded values. Then create a Flash app that will populate the XML to be used via Flash app.

Currently…  
I have a Flash app that brings in XML data, but we have to manually put in the data into the XML file. I would like to create another app that will allow people who don’t want to get into the XML file to be able to input that data into a Flash GUI and click on a ‘submit’ button that will populate the XML file automatically.

Direction would be greatly appreciated.
