iv made a little flash program that gets its configeratin / running settings from a file called config.ini

basically config.ini is just filled with setting variables like

autoplay=0&showmenu1=1&showmenu2=0 etc.

Now i want to make a GUI editor for this config.ini, i know its possible with mm director, but its been a while since ive used that package.. :-S. If the GUI had to be online i could do it with flash and php but its got to work offline.

Preferably id like to make the editor with just FlashMX. All the editing part is easy, with the fields and the selections BUT how do i save the settings to my config.ini??

I know flashMX has XML capabilities which iv used before (mostly the object.Load and Save functions) but i cant find an option to save info to an external txt file..

any help apreciated.

Thanks,
Thomas Smart
