Saving and loading in Projector file

[carnby]

I have created a flash projector that allows the user to drag objects around the screen. I want the user to have the ability of saving their progress and to be able to load the file and carry on from where they left off. As I am using Flash 5 I can use "FScommand save" to save and load variables. I want to know how to save the positions of the objects to a file (which will have a name specified by the user), and when loading, for them to be able to scroll through a number of saves to download the one they want. Is this possible and if so is it practical to do it in Flash. I have a reasonable knowledge of Flash but not of any other authoring environments. I also wondered if importing the file into Director and having the the Director file do the saving would work, but I don't know how to do that either. Hope someone out there can help. thanks.
