I've had that problem also when one item was missing from the library. This can happen when you use a class from an fla into another fla and that class is referencing a library item in the other fla but you forgot to copy that item in your new fla's library.

What you've got here is the case of a corrupted library item. It happens sometimes and there's only one thing you can do about it. Not too long ago, my team inherited a Flash 8 file with a corrupted library item that was so terribly corrupted, the Flash 8 file would only open in Flash CS3 on an old G4 Mac running OSX Jaguar. Yes, it was that specific (We assumed that the original file was probably built on that system spec). It would not open in Windows Flash 8 or CS3, it would not open on any Mac Flash 8 or CS3 running a version of OSX higher than Jaguar. What we had to (and you have to) do is go through your library symbols one by one, deleting each one until you find the sucker, and then replacing it if need be. Thankfully, you can open your file directly. We had to open the file in Flash CS3 (which is bloated and slow) on that slow old Mac with 256MB RAM, delete a symbol, save as a new Flash file, copy said file to the network drive, and try to open it from another computer, rinse repeat, until we found the graphic that was causing it. It took us a few hours. Good luck! _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
