Thanks Oleg, I figured there wasn't a way to do the call in Flex and that it would have to be AIR. The reason I can't just use the sound class is because there are no speakers on our machines.
What about rolling out updates to AIR? The reason we are using Flex and not AIR is because when we have a new version to roll out we just deploy the swf to our web-server. With AIR how do new udates take place? --- In [email protected], Oleg Sivokon <olegsivo...@...> wrote: > > I *think* that you can do it in AIR 2 - it has something called native > process, which should be able to launch another application - sorry, I > really don't know the details. > Maybe Zinc or SWFStudio can do this...
