Hi, I have built an interactive CD using VB .Net 2003 for the background and Flash MX for the front end. Everything is working great, however I am trying to modify the object ._visible parameter from VB using the movie .SetVariable("variable name", "value") parameter. This apparently is not working.

As an alternative, I have also made a global variable called objectvisibleVAR in which to modify. VB is successfull in modifying this, but when I make "object._visible = objectvisibleVAR" it does not update. (however, if I use a flash button to make objectvisibleVAR = true, it does work)

Is there something I am missing here on making changes to variables and having them automatically update in the movie??


any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks a million,

Jason :-)
