Urgent Help Needed

[southplatte]

Hey all,

I have a huge problem in a flash project I am working on.

Here is what I am doing, I create a dynamic text box, assign the instance name of courses, a varName of courseDesc and make it render as html.

I then have a button with action script in a separate layer to load text from an external file. The text loads just fine.

HOWEVER- The scrollbar does not work when I load the text from an external file, only when I manually type it in, which is not an option, as I need to have it from the file so that way the client can update the text on a regular basis, without needing to go into the flash file.

How do I make the scroll bars work for text loaded from an external file??

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Here is your answer. I tested it myself using MX 2004 and the identifier "LoadVar" is written as "loadVar". Once I corrected that, it worked great with no error reports.

I hope this helps.

Scott,

Thank-you very much! I was wondering if it was something like that, but I couldn't find it myself.

Thanks again!
