Hi all, As I have a similar situation with a Flex app, I came to the following that works for me: Any Flex SWF is running withing the client's browser and for security reasons (as already mentioned) Flex is always running in sandbox, contrary to AIR. But there is no reason why in the local environment, the user/client can't switch from his browser to his system tray, copy the full path of a certain file and paste it to, say, a TextArea in the Flex app.
This of course doesn't give any access to the file through the Flex app, but I was only needing the full path...
