You can use FileReference[1] to load a file. Browse for the file, load it. Once the complete event is dispatched you should be able to use the "data" property to access the file data.
If you need to you can convert the ByteArray to string just by casting it.

Is there a way to do this, other than using URLLoader and then load? Thanks, Lane. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus
