I'd like to take this a step further. I wish to copy a file from a cd to the
user's desktop with a file dialog...the twist being that the button needs to
be in a flash movie that has been saved as a QT movie and then imported into
Director. I've found that saving a Flash file as a QT movie disables the
getURL commands.
My solution has been to have the button in Flash trigger a silent piece of
audio that contains a cuepoint. I use cuePassed to catch this and then
Director does my bidding. It's kinda messy but it works.
My question is, can I open a file dialog and copy the file within the
Flash-As-QT movie or is my workaround an OK way to go?
TIA.
