Check it (the text file) is in the "bin" directory (normally set by default to be "[projectRoot]/bin" , but that may have been set differently in project properties), which is where the debug version will be running from... It's probably a reasonable idea to do a file.exists check in your code as well, just to help narrow it down. -----Original Message----- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jon Bell Sent: 17 December 2007 06:37 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Reading from a file - file not found? Hello, I inherited some code and I'm trying to get it to compile. This code should be straight-forward, but it's saying it can't file the file: var termsFile:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("Terms.txt"); var stream:FileStream = new FileStream(); stream.open(termsFile, FileMode.READ); Text(sender).text = stream.readUTFBytes(termsFile.size); stream.close(); break; The third line is where it's choking. I see the file in the root directory of the project, with the capital "T" and permissions are set correctly. Does anyone have any idea what might be going wrong here? Thanks, Jon
