Saving to a text file with flash

[seeFresh]

Does flash have the ability to do this? I'm wanting to do it from an executable swf, I think I've heard people talk about binaries, where would I find info on using binaries with flash? I'm a programmer, so I can pick up on the ideas quick, just not sure what to look for. Any suggestions would be great.

thanks

projector or online?
projector: need 3rd party software
online: see my sig.

Definitely projector, I've looked into some of the 3rd party software, but will I be able to distribute that software with the cd? I need people who get this to be able to save their results to a text file.

Look into using a 3rd party tool like Zinc:

Basically, these tools just wrap the Flash Player into an .exe which allows the additional OS-level functionality. You don't need to distribute any additional software on the CD, just create the SWF, add the extra functions with Zinc, and publish the projector file...
