Behold... FLASH OBJECTS!
root = sprite(x).getVariable("_root",false)
root.getStringFromDMX("myString")
False allows getVariable() to return a reference to the root timeline.
Then you can call functions on it.

Subject: <lingo-l> Trigger FlashMX function from DMX.
Hi all,
just wondering if anyone has worked with triggering/calling flash
functions,
using lingo, from DMX? The flash function I'm trying to reach is inside
a
sprite that is a Flash object. What I want to do is (in pseudo)
something
like:
sprite(x).callFlashFunction("getStringFromDMX()", "myString")
It has to be functions and not just setting and getting variables.
Great list and thanks in advance.
