I want to hit a button and the text contained in that swf textinput field shows up in the textinput field in my flex application. Here is my fuction: function foo() { flextext.text = text1.text; } where flextest is the id of a textinput box in Flex and text1 refers to the text box in the swf file Now, here is the problem, flex tells me that there is no property with the name "text1". Of course there is, but it is in my swf file? Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks. Yahoo! Groups Links Yahoo!
