Passing info. with Flash MX and Access

[columbus]

I would really appreciate if someone could help me (a beginning Flash programmer) to figure out how to pass information back and forth using Flash MX and a MS Access database.

Let me know of any ideas. Thanks.

you need ASP

Could you by chance explain how to do it using asp.

[betaruce]

um....
basically you do all query or other server behaviours using ASP
then use asp to output the result and pass to Flash
in Flash there are various script for reading these data (e.g. loadvariable)

u could do a search in google to find some tutorials

Like he said use ASP.
You write your manipulations in ASP and in Flash, if you want flash to get a variable use:

loadVariablesNum("youraspfile.asp", 0);[AS]

if you want to send a variable use:

[AS]loadVariablesNum("anotheraspfile.asp", 0, "POST");

Hope this helps.
