Why can't the little flash file just *sit* someplace that has Flash Remoting? You don't have to buy it, and if they have their own PC that they're hosting from, just get a little account someplace or piggyback it someplace else where it *can* get to a database? Maybe that's a cheap little solution?

Hi all, I've been aware of the fact that i can't use import statements in a superclass and then use the imported class in the subclass, however, I always thought of it as being an issue with the compiler not knowing it should import the class when an instance of the imported class was not defined
