Initially I had a whole post asking questions about why this was the
case (can't reference user-selected file without uploading/
downloading first) but I felt it was pretty OT for the flexcoders
list (or probably flashcoders list for that matter). Does anyone know
of a venue for discussing Flash Player security specifics?
Thanks,
John

I have no specific knowlage but my guess is that flex doesn't
actually access your file system. What it probably does is tell
your browser to access the file system. In any event, this issues
has been widely discussed and there isn't a way around it (unless
you can figure out how to hack adobe's security sandbox).
