Subject: FLASH: Adding to a Variable



Hey everyone,


Got a quickie here I hope. I have successfully loaded a variable from an ASP

file into Flash. The variable loads into a movie clip called current_date -

the text field variable is currentDate. Unfortunately, the ASP function

returns 4/17/00 but Flash only displays 4/17 - I need to add the /00 to the

end. So I tried this:


Set Variable: "/current_date:currentDate" = /current_date:currentDate +

"/00"


but no luck. The first /current_date:currentDate is a string, the second is

an expression - is that my problem? Any takers?


TIA!

Jason
