Yes. You need server side scripting (flavor of your choice). Use the
LoadVars or XML objects (or several other ways, but these are probably
the easiest) Search google for "write text file" Then add the flavor of

Hello all,

me name is vee and i have just been introduced to flash, I have been 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.
