RegExp class not found in CS3? 1

[grande]

Hi all,

I'm fairly new to Flash, but I'm fairly experienced in ActionScript due to some Flex development. I'm assuming my problem is related to there being a difference between the envirnments, but I can't figure out what it is.

I have a simple RegExp:
var pattern:RegExp = new RegExp("<.*");

When I try to publish, I get this error:
The class or interface 'RegExp' could not be loaded.

Any idea what would be causing this?

Thanks!

Have you set it to AS3?

That's an excellent question. How would I do that?

Properties > Publish: Settings... > ActionScript version: > ActionScript 3.0

Hmmm... Putting it to AS3.0 caused all sorts of other problems... And is it accurate that there's no RegEx in AS2.0? I can't find anything on it.

RegExp is AS3 only.
