Locally? Security restrictions won't allow you to do that. To do it on
the web, you would have to use something like .NET or PHP, and then
download the file to the local system. That would be pretty easy.

Thanks for the reply...
As you can tell, I'm trying to write the results of my simple
form to
a file, can be any format, i.e., text, XML, etc. to preferably
an
email address or to a text file. What I'd like to see in the
file
would look like this
Name: John Smith
Address1: 234 Main St
Address2: Suite 100
City: Los Angeles
State: CA
Zip: 90028
Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:jsmith%40company.com>
Is there a way to do this? Can't seem to find any info in the
Flex
docs...thanks again...
