You could try a LocalConnection with a crossdomain policy, and an
allowDomain set,
(I know you can do it with two different open webpages, haven't
tested web 2 desktop,
but as long as both are open, they should talk. But I could stand
corrected.)
I think LocalConnection is just AS2 though. Not sure of the equiv. in
AS3.
Might be a less hacky work-around though. If I understand your
situation that is.. :)
HTH,

Hmm, an exe should be exempt from the "local vs network" restrictions,
but maybe something else is failing.
Have you tried tracing the error?
I vaguely rememeber having problems with "_blank", etc. in the past.
See if it works without those?
Here are some links I found that may help.

Hello,
After some more investigation I have found that the buttons not
working
problem I was having is not a browser malfunction. I have found
that when
I
put the site on a web server all works well regardless of the
browser. But
when I put the site on a CD a run it from there, all calls to outside
sources do not work.
All calls to local sources such as url:String = "/Documents/
some.pdf" in
the
below function works just fine.
And insight to this problem would be appreciated.
function GotoURLAustinMopac(e:MouseEvent):void{
var url:String =
"http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=6836+Austin+Center
+Blvd.+A
ustin+TX+78731";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
try {
navigateToURL(request,'_blank');
} catch (e:Error) {
//Do Nothing
}
}
