ActionScript 3 - Load External Text File Data - Flash AS3

[NCdesignsHD]

this works fine on my PC which is good and I can see the text but when I try loading the app onto my android with the text file in the same folder it wont load the text. really need to do this so any help would be very appreciated :)

this worked great, I have a further question. Can you alter and save the text file through flash?

[Deleojur]

Thanks, this really helped me =)

I already had the code, but I didn't know the file had to be in the .bin directory.

Hi there.

Great tutorial. I'm building a basic website in flash cs3, as3. I've some buttons with one dynamic text field. I want to load one particular txt file each time a specific button is pressed. How can I achieve that? Any advice would help

At that site it is in the Flash Video Tutorials section. Second Orange Button Left Menu. It is first lesson under heading: "Working with Other External Files and Data"

Is there any way to do this in Action Script 1 or 2 aiming for compatibility with flash 7.0??

How would you add a scroll bar to this if the text file contains enough text to need one?
