Search Engine Tutorial

[thatrenowned]

Does this tutorial work for anyone else?:

http://www.macromedia.com/support/generator/ts/documents/search_engine2.htm

I went through it using Flash 5 and an Access database on a stand alone machine, but I can't get it to work.

Some parts of it I don't fully understand, like the bit where it tells you to create a symbol called 'ButtonClip'. It doesn't tell you what type of symbol to make it (I think it might mean an MC, but on one of the pictures the actions have on release which obviously an MC can't have).

Anyway, if anyone can get this to work, can they point me in the direction of a different tutorial.

Aw yeah, last thing, I'm using Windows 98, so it would be helpful if you also said how to do the ODBC. I thought mine was set up alright but who knows...

Thanks
