Hi, i can imagine at least two issues (had to deal with them myself after some conversions), one is for/while loops that have become endless loops due to a default initialisation or datatype that has changed from 8 to 9. 2, the handling of paths, which seems to have changed only a little bit, eg ._url returns forwards instead of backslashes (only local though). This isnt probably it, but you could try to inspect one of the clips for lusses etc.

I have an app that was created using Flash 8 consisting of a main swf that loads in number of subordinate swfs, all published for version 7 compatability using AS 2. The subordinate swfs contain a collection of 8 frame movie clips, each a stop frame - no other code. The main swf changes the colour and visibility of the clips inside the subordinates according to user input and advances each clip in turn by one frame when the user clicks another button. All pretty standard stuff. Everything worked fine with version 7 and 8 players but now we have version 9 and and now some of the subordinate swfs fail to load (no onLoadError fired, just hanging) and some of the others freeze the whole app when accessed. I can't immediately spot any similarities between the offending swfs or differences (other than graphical) from other swfs that are working fine. The freezing can (in some cases) be narrowed down to particular clips inside the subordinates, remove them and the swfs work fine, but there does not seem to be any common element among them they are all quite basic graphics - single colour, no outline. Has anyone found anything in particular which upsets the version 9 player that I can look out for (and remove) or is there any way that I can re-publish the swfs in a way that will not offend the version 9 player or am i going to have to painstakingly go through all the swfs and re draw the graphics, hoping that whatever is throwing the spanner into the works gets omitted this time.
