Yes.
For a cast, in addition to what Buzz said, you need to leave the external
cast unprotected and make sure the cst file is not read-only (the movies can
be protected).

Hi,
Does anybody know of a way to protect a cast on the fly? I'm working on a

Buddy's baOpenFile() opens a file in the appropriate app (it finds the app

Well, almost - printomatic will print what you tell it to print. You will
also need to grab the screen (I assume you just want the stage, not the
desktop). For that, you can use member("someMember").image = (the
