I've never worked directly with Director, but I have a basic understanding

of it.

That is exactly what I needed to know.  Unfortunatly the Director developer

has zero experience with Flash, so I think that we most likely won't be

using it.  I think we'll spend to much time and money trying to figure out

how to make it work than this project is budgeted for.

They use an MPEG extra and only produce for Windows 95+, so it's not a

problem.

Yep!  That's exactly it.  My friend, the Director developer, was also hoping

that this would be a snap so that he had a reason to get his boss to buy

Director 7 - right now he's running 6.5 ;-)


Thanks!
