You have to ask permission from the user, otherwise Flash would be the best virus and spyware platform hands-down. You can have a config dialog that comes up and store what you want in a local shared object for use next time the app runs. There may be javascript ways to get around this. -Alex

While I have implemented this successfully, there remains one issue that I cannot get around. When the flex app looks to read the properties file, flash security gets into the way and I have to go to the flash security manager and give the app access to the local property file. (http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/set tings_manager04.html <http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/set tings_manager04.html> ) My problem is...the machine I'll be tossing all this on...it will be disconnected from the Internet. So, I won't be able to get to that page correct? So how do I give myself access to that local property file? Can this be done? PLEASE HELP! Aaron
