Subject:	FLASH: reload variables

HI everyone....

I just made my first little flash game and was very excited.........but then
I discovered by High Score Feature doesn't work.

In the first frame it does a load variables command
loadVariablesNum ("highscore.cfm", 0);

>From a text file and imports the highest score, name, and email.
If you play the game and get a high score you enter your details and it uses
geturl to post these to a database.

You then click "play again", it goes back to frame 1 and SHOULD load the NEW
variables with the new high score from the database.

THe problem is that it doesn't insert the new variable data into flash so it
still displays the old high score.

Is there anyway to flush out old variables and to force flash to load new
variables in with the Load variables command?

thanks for you help...

chad
