I personally would suggest that you look into using Eclipse with the VSS plugin (http://sourceforge.net/projects/vssplugin/ ) for that to manage your Flash projects. You will need one of the ActionScript editor plugins for Eclipse as well. Check out either FDT ( http://www.powerflasher.com/fdt ) or the open source ASDT (http://asdt.org/). While setting these tools up may take a bit of time to figure out, in the end there are tremendous advantages to doing so. You get a better code editor than what comes with the Flash IDE, you are able to integrate with versioning systems like CVS, SVN, and VSS, you can get other plugins for other code editing like Java, PHP, etc..., integrating with a much faster compiler (MTASC) is relatively straight forward, and much more. Anyway, it's just a suggestion. I hope it helps. -Chris On 1/16/06, Fitzpatrick, Kevin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Miles, > > Sorry I wasn't more specific, I am using MX 2004 Pro and the option > isn't there.
