Share Posted April 30, 2012 Hey, guys, here's what's going on: I'm using SWF Studio Pro to augment my SWF and create a folder in the user's %APPDATA% directory on a Windows machine. That all works like it should. The problem, however, is when I attempt to load an XML file saved to the user's local machine: when my EXE is first run, it copies an XML file to %APPDATA%\pathname\filename.xml Because I won't know what the users' names are, how can I tell LoaderMax to look in said folder? SWF Studio Pro uses what it called "monikers" that get resolved to the actual paths required, so for example when I type "appdata://pathname/filename.xml", the program sees "C:\Users\Blake\AppData\Roaming\pathname\filename.xml" LoaderMax is, understandably, having trouble (that is, it's not) resolving the full appdata path. Any thoughts on how to solve this problem? Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites
Author Share Posted April 30, 2012 I'm a moron: SWF Studio Pro also includes strings like ssGlobals.ssAppDataDir that solve my problem. Too many help files to read and not enough common sense to read them! Ack! Link to post Share on other sites
