Hi, I have been trying to remove myself from the list.
I have followed the instructions many times, but I still keep getting the
mail.
Any suggestions.
Thanks

Hi Leah, many thanks for your quick response to my question at Lingo. You
are of course correct about the Prefs item but the only example I can find
using this is not very user friendly, that is to say the adding of files is
too scrappy and a bit hit or miss. I have tried to find another example but
to no avail. I have found an example using FileIO at the Macromedia website
which looks and feels exactly the way I want but unfortunately the text file
is stored in the same directory as the movie which is no good as the movies
are running from CD. The line causing me grief is
filePath = the moviePath & "My Notes"
is there anyway that I can save the file to a folder outside of the movie on
the users hard drive. Also if anyone has an example of this and could either
email me or point me in the direction of an example I would be eternally
grateful, ideally I would like a box where text can be entered or deleted
with a simple open and close dialogue box. I am a bit of an idiot when it
comes to this kind of thing and unless I can see the thing working I find it
really hard to grasp so a quick explanation goes right over my head. When
working I can then adapt things to suit me.
In anticipation of your answers
Many thanks
