If you own FLASH MX 2004 (PRO/Std) you're way better off using the
Debugger in that. I've found it way more useful in terms of traversing
the Movie "DOM" so to speak. On top of that you can actually view your
source code for the entire swf and set break points etc. Its much more
effecient in terms of debugging then Flex Builders built-in version.

Sad part is you have to leave FLASH MX 2004 open while you code (not
really that bad).

I tried Oxygen before, apparently its the ducks nuts when using MXML
code. Sad part is its code completition is not up to scratch yet. In
that, if i have mx:Panel open, and i then under neath try and put
another one (not that i would) it will try and close that tag instead
of providing you with another open tag. Plus it doesn't have the
attribute completions as FLEX builder has.

Point is this, try not to get into the habit of using FLEX builder as
its hard to walk away from when you've got it ingrained into your
coding daytoday :)

the Flash MX Debugger is much more powerful and well worth a looksie.
