Have you looked into describeType()? I understand it is 'expensive' from a computational perspective, but might avoid the problem you are having. It returns xml describing the object.

I am currently using the "IS" keyword to check if the object is of a particular type. (Object is Type) But doing that is loading the complete class in the swf file which if increasing the size of the swf to a great extend and affecting the performance of the application. Can you suggest me any way to check for an object is of some type which would not increase the swf size of than (Object is Type). Thanks Pratik
