I recently had this issue crop up where I try to launch mxml or as projects in Flex 3 and the swf launches in Flash CS4. How can I prevent this from happening? I am on a mac, snow leopard...

This happens only if I run the Flex Project w/o the HTML wrapper code.

There's probably an association of SWF with authoring. Try to reassociate SWF with the standalone player.

Ya I think that fixed it. I recently had CS4 installed on my laptop and I think it took over file associations... I opened up Flex3 again as I am trying to follow this method for working between Flex and Flash: http://www.bigspaceship.com/blog/labs/just-another-flash-ide-flexflash-builder-workflow/

Almost there I think. Anyway, thanks!
