Flash question - newbie
I'm interested in learning about developing applications on CFMX that utilize Flash but I confess I'm confused as to what I would need to do this. There seem to be various products; Flash MX 2004, Flash MX Pro 2004 and Studio MX 2004 with Flash Pro, etc. that might do this. What's the minimum software requirement for developing Flash apps? What would be the benefits of alternatives to the minimum? I own CF Studio 5 if that's a factor. Sorry this sounds so lame but I've never created anything with Flash and am clueless.

Re: Flash question - newbie
The only 2 tools you need Flash MX 2004 Professional and Sapien's PrimalScript www.sapien.com. There are a couple of good books to get you going: Macromedia Flash MX 2004 ActionScript: Training from the Source http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0321213432/qid=1073329947//ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i0_xgl14/103-1014540-8267857?v=glances=booksn=507846 Macromedia Flash MX Professional 2004 for Server Geeks: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0735713820/ref=pd_sim_books_4/103-1014540-8267857?v=glances=books That's my 2 cents...

At a minimum, Flash Pro with or without the studio (not sure if you need that extra stuff) and the free developer version of CFMX (which comes with Flash Remoting). You could get away with the standard version of Flash but the additional components and integrated AS editor in Pro make it worth it. chris From: Stephen Hait [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 05, 2004 11:03 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Flash question - newbie I'm interested in learning about developing applications on CFMX that utilize Flash but I confess I'm confused as to what I would need to do this.

Re: Flash question - newbie
It's not really, but its a much better editor with a class browser for AS2... Plus it has some good CF stuff and it just plain rocks.

Re: Flash question - newbie
to use any of the new data components, you have to get the pro version. AFAIK you can use FMX 2004 with remoting, but not to the extent as you can with the Pro version.
