Oh, sorry about that. Didn't read carefully enough. I don't think there is a solution given your contraints...but I'm going to offer my two cents. Forget MM's compiler. It might as well be unsupported. Tech support will cost a fortune to speak to and I'm pretty sure they wouldn''t be able to fix your problems anyway.
Switch to MTASC. Convince whoever you're working for that it's a good idea. Your life will be easier and consequently, so will everyone elses. I've been using it for more than a year building major libraries (ActionStep -- http://tinyurl.com/lupmv) and at this point there is absolutely nothing to worry about. A large and well-versed user base will be right at your fingertips. Lots of coders were fed up with MMC a long time ago, and are now happily enjoying Flash development again. Hope you didn't mind the rant, good luck, Scott On 14/06/06, Sam Thorne <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi Scott, Yeah, I've seen this, but the problem isn't making the compile call, it's running Flash while not in a windowing environment. All Mike's script really does is build a custom jsfl script on the fly, open Flash and run the script. It's the 'Open Flash' bit that we're stuck with, as we have no logged in user.
