I have recently begun migrating an application that was originally written in C# to Flex. The application utilized the Flash ActiveX control to display an SWF that was used for video conferencing. The C# program required the user to log in to get to the video conferencing and the user's ID was fed to the Flash video component using 'SetVariable'. How do I do this from within my Flex app? How do I emulate the 'SetVariable' call? I have the SWF loaded and displaying properly using SWFLoader. Is the 'SetVariable' acheived through the LocalConnection component?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
