[flexcoders] loading resource bundles manually in flex3

[Durres76]

Hi,
i'm trying to use the .properties files to configure my app. This is
outside of the general localization discussions and i'm running into a
few problems. i'm building an internal global tool and want to use
property files to define the specific views and attributes for each
section. in my project i have a folder called: properties and in it
there is a folder for en_US.
inside of en_US i have two folders, one for each section: UPD and BBS.
each of those folders have their own config.properties file.
the compile directives look like this: -locale=en_US
-allow-source-path-overlap=true
-source-path=properties/{locale}/UPD,properties/{locale}/BBS

in my application there is a drop down with BBS and UPD options. I
want to switch to the correct bundle when a user changes the dropdown
values. attached is the code for the dropdown and the switching.

can someone tell me how to point to the correct bundles?

Thanks,
d
