Unfortunately this isn't as straight forward as you would think. FileReference, for some reason, will not allow you to access the data of the file you have located. Therefore the only way that I am aware of to do what you want would be to upload this file to a server first, then load it into flex using swfloader or an image control. -----Original Message----- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of nchumbo Sent: 28 November 2006 13:05 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] how to choose an image hi, i'm a neewbie in flex programming.
