Hello all,

me name is vee and i have just recently been introduced to flash, only
working with the tool for a year now but need some help. Please help.

I know flash can write and read from files externally, my question is this.
If I was to create a user interface using flash with HTML, incorporating input
fields. can I manipulate the data recovered from the users inputs, to be
written into a text file within a structured format?

You see I am trying to get flash to read in input values and place them into a
set VRML code structure using variables. This will then be saved as a .wrl text
file, so that my VRML compiler can make use of the code.

Example

(Flash interface using input fields)
Enter in measurement : [ 6 ]cm *stored as variable A


(VRML code)

pointset = { 1,3,4,5,A };

A being the variable used but remaining code constant.
then all code including VRML saved in txt file

Hi,

Flash by itself does not have write-access properties to the client hard disk.
(except for Shared Object). To write your data into a text file, you will need
to incorporate your flash in a 'wrapper' program, such as a windows
application. From which it can then write files onto to client hard disk
