Glen, Thanks, this does help... although I'm still hoping against hope for a better way to get this .fla source updated! Anyone have any experience with updating old .fla source? Has it always just gone smoothly?! Thanks again, --Dave From: Glen Pike <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi,

Hi, Both are pretty good but leave you some work to do in that all the exported symbols are named programmatically and not as your original FLA. ASV exports a JSFL file and a load of AS and FLA files. To rebuild your FLA, you need to run the JSFL. Flash Decompiler is simpler and it s

The source is not corrupted as far as I can tell, since it can be opened in MX on 10.2 with no problems. But would this be a possible (rather round-about) route to converting to Flash 8? Do these decompilers do a good job of reconstituting MovieClips, Graphics, etc... as per the original?

Hey all, I'm trying to update some old, old source FLA files which were last updated in Flash MX (the original development preceeded even that), and I'm having trouble with some of the files-- i.e. Flash crashes on opening them! The old source is on a Mac 10.2.8 system, and I need to get
