If you take out the catch and alert, do you get the error thrown?

Alex, thanks for replying. May you please explain how can I do that? I tried: try { var myLC:LocalConnection; myLC = new LocalConnection(); myLC.connect("TestLC"); } catch (err:ArgumentError) { Alert.show("Redirect to another page","Failure"); } but it doesn't seem to work..

Hi, I embedded a flash 8 movie w/ AS2 in my flex application and used a local connection to exchange data. Everything works fine except that if I open the page twice, the Local connection in the second instance won't work -which screws the whole purpose of it-. The question is can I prevent the user from opening multiple instances from the same flash at the same time?! or at least if it is not possible in Flex, is there another way to do it with JavaScript or PHP?!
