[Flashcoders] Linking variables to movie clip frames
I have a Flash project which I am now putting together using ZincV2 - referring my entire application to a database. I have 50 locations each displaying a movie clip consisting of 48 frames / pictures (options) relating to the relevant number I've imported from the database. This shouldn't be to hard referring to a frame number from a variant number, but ideally I want it to work both ways - eg: each clip to be directly linked with /attached to the relevant variant so that when the frame/picture is swapped from within my movie the variant changes to this number enabling my database to be updated from within the movie. Finally giving the user functionality to scroll through a list of arrangement names which when selected displays all 50 entrees each with a pre-defined setup. For a new setup the user can click NEW - enter a name for the new arrangement, select his option for each position, then click SAVE to add this arrangement to the database.

RE: [Flashcoders] Simple serial reading application
Hi Pedro - thanks for your advice - I`ve downloaded zinc as suggested, got a standard flash application set-up(but not yet working)for reading the comm ports using the zinc additional FScommands(as per the Zinc literature) however for the PPC version i`ve downloaded these Comm FScommands are not listed in the literature. If i include the same actionscript in my programm when i render the application for pocketPC will these Comm port fscommands still be supported, or is there a different method that must be used to read/access the comm port of a PPC ?

[Flashcoders] Database based flash application
My other basic issue is for an application which displays approx 50 boxes each of which i currently have formed using movie symbols, can be fully rotated in 45 degree increments have 6 options of contents (this would leave each box having 2 varients (8 for position, 6 for content), or 48 total varients) The arrangement / setup of the 50 boxes makes up a group (basicaly a list of each box content) These are stored in the form of a database. The function i want to give to the program is that a user can select a group the relevant contents of each box will be shown, also to beable to change each box enter a name producing a new group. This is basically simple Microsoft Access functionality, but each peice of stored data relating to a movie clip / frame / action within the program. This maybe a simple / complicated question, but any help / pointing in the right direction would be much appreciated.

RE: [Flashcoders] Simple serial reading application
dosn`t have to be flash, but we have a shell everything i need setup in flash im not very good with other softwares- just thought there may be some backdoor way to read com ports to flash. what software would you reccomend scott ? The application is for reading some kind of tag - displaying any information stored on the tag maybe detailing the tag type. Just a standard serial reading software would do (although i`d much rather develop into a personalised program - obviously it would leave much more options for attaching data to pictures etc..) but there seems to be no standard software such as hyperterminal for PPC which dosn`t need a licence for each device (which wouldn`t be acceptable- ideally the solution would beable to be ran straight from an SSD card) I`ll have a look at Zinc V2 - looks very expensive though just to give me the possibility to read from a comm port, but i suppose if it gets the job done ;o) Much appreciate you feedback time Danny -Original Message- From: Scott Hyndman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 31 October 2005 15:39 To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Simple serial reading application This is a strange thing to want to do in Flash.
