Hi Allyn- The answer isn't necessarily that simple. When you create a "My Map" on Google Maps, that map is available as both a KML feed and a simple GeoRSS feed. In the JS API, there is a class that takes in a KML/GeoRSS URL and displays it the same way it's displayed on maps. This is easy to do in the JS API since Google Maps and the API share the same JavaScript base. In the Flash API, there is no built-in class to do this.
There is, however, an open-source library for parsing and displaying KML, linked to from here: http://code.google.com/p/gmaps-utility-library-flash/wiki/Libraries It may require a bit of effort to integrate, however - it's not just one line of code. Depending on your ultimate needs, it may be easier just to re-create the objects in the Flash API - you can view the KML's XML to see all the coordinates information. Hope that helps; let me know what needs further clarification. - pamela On Sat, Feb 21, 2009 at 9:58 AM, Allyn <[email protected]> wrote: > > I'm sure this answer is out there, I just couldn't find it.
