Hi John, I use Smartboards and Promethean boards and haven't had that issue with Flash - both seem to behave themselves (and the behave the same way).

Not all whiteboards behave the same. Using C++ (same in Flash ?) I had an issue with Smartboard that wasn't there with Promethian boards. With Smartboards (finger operated), when the finger is lifted contact is lost and the mouse stays where it last was x0,y0. When the finger was placed elsewhere I had to make sure I read the mouse x,y position first, otherwise it looked like a mouse click occured at x0,y0 rather than x,y. With Promethian (pen operated), the mouse x,y is updated as the pen approaches the board and the click of contact comes later, and so the correct item was selected.
