Hi, all.
I just got the CS3 upgrade...
I need to place a dynamic text box that gets populated with a variable I am importing from .asp via LoadVars. In prior versions, I would simply create a dynamic text box right on the stage and set its "var" property to the variable name.
Looks like they took that option out in CS3 (or at least I can't find it.)
Anyone know if we can still set a dynamic text box to populate from a variable anymore, and if so, where I look for the setting?
(I know I can create text fields on the fly using actionscript and stuff variables in them from there, but it becomes much more of a pain - and a lot of code - to move several text fields around on the stage as other things happen, so I'd rather place and move them directly on the stage if I can for this simple project.)
TIA,
Carolyn
