[flexcoders] Flash 8 swf in Flex 2.0 App?

[Steve Polk]

I am trying to figure out how to embed a Flash 8 swf into Flex and read any properties from it. From the couple posts I have found while searching the archives and the limited documentation in Flex, it would appear that you can only embed the file, but you cannot access its properties and MovieClips.   I was hoping I could build my next application and framework into Flex, but would need to embed other Flash content on occasion, not created by me. The idea was that if the other movie had a text field or a combobox, I would be able to listen to change events and possibly grab the new values of these components from the Flash 8 file within my Flex application.   Thanks for any insight on this.   Steve -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Web site design development Computer software development Software design and development Macromedia flex Software development best practice YAHOO!
