Difficulty: Intermediate

In this article I will be demonstrating how to track activities in your flash application by using LoadVariables to pass arguments to a waiting asp.net page (.aspx) to process however you want. My example utilizes an SQL Server database to store the activities, but you could utilize any database connection via ASP.NET 2.0.  

This article touches upon basic OOP principals and includes example code in both Actionscript 2.0 for the flash tracking and C# for the server side processing.  I also utilize a simple utility class in Actionscript to contain the methods necessary to connect to the asp.net web page.
