Makes sense.  Thanks Zeh.

Maybe you can tell me if there if there is any way to ensure that accessing fla files over the network is stable. I know in the past that flas have disappeared on me when working off a network drive. I'm guessing you'd say that I should duplicate whatever it is and put in on my own local drive and not even risk it, but I thought I'd ask. It's just a mess to have client work all over the place.

thanks again!

I recently hired an assistant and we need to share and simultaneously work on .fla files over a local network. There must be tools for this, but a search on google didn't yield anything (must not be using the right terminology).

There isn't. Only one people can work on a .FLA at a time.

You can have separate symbols that are loaded ("shared") from other .FLA files at design time, so then can be worked on and the reloaded. But usually it's not worth the hassle.

Usually, you shouldn't have the need for two people to work on the same .FLA file at the same time simply because changing two different aspects of a source file would make compiling and debugging impossible. If they want to work on two different things, you'd better split the .FLA file into different files, then the website would have different SWF files which are loaded on demand on the website.
