Usually this is setup through the Project Properties. I add another top-level folder for anything the app needs to consume at runtime (like an "etc" folder) and perhaps another that the app needs to consume at compile time like embedded assets (like an "includes" folder -- it's up to you): Project >> Properties >> Flex Build Path >> Source Path >> Add Folder... To have files copied to the bin when building, don't forget to check: Project >> Properties >> Flex Compiler >> Copy non-embedded files to output folder Then you have the option of including these folders in SVN or leaving them local to the working copy... In my experience though, when another dev checks out the project, they have to set up these folder associations for their working copy in FB, so I might put a README.txt in the root of the project detailing the expected setup. This seems kinda clunky though -- if anyone knows what to do to persist these settings through the SVN, I'd love to know. I know ANT is always an option, but sometimes its nice to not have to muck with it. HTH, Ryan ________________________________

I've tried various ways of setting up links etc and FB doesn't seem to like any of them.
