welcome to the forums

//the text file's name is "myText.txt"
/*the text in the text field should start with a variable and
must have no spaces between the var name and the equal sign, i.e
myTextVar=blah blah bla
*/
//all goes in the first frame
var myVar:LoadVars = new LoadVars()
myVar.load("myText.txt")
myVar.onLoad = function(done){
if(done){
myTextField.text = this.myTextVar
}
}

Then how can i use send fuction to send to a txt file or html file???

[farafiro]

u should have a server to do this

[deadbeat]

You need a server side script like PHP or ASP...Flash can't write to a text file on its own...
