I have a ticket grows as it floats around a screen. I want to display a name on that ticket, but that information will be changing and will be in a text file. How can I get flash to read from a text file to display that name? Is it possable?
 
loadvariables..

create a dynamic text box and give it a variable name "textfield..

now create a text file in notepad..

first line should say:

textfield= then put your text here

file save as something.txt..

first frame of your movie

loadVariables("yourfile.txt", "yourtextbox_mc");
