RE: FLASH:Is it possible to call an image into flash? was "The Point of Generator"

[James Jack]

I have a question which may be the answer to a post from yesterday.  Is

it possible to call an image from a database and have it appear in your

flash moive without Generator?  I can get text yes and pass complicated

URLs to scripts and so forth but is there any way to retrieve a graphic

file?  I cant think of how it would be done . . which means I may be

limited to a pop up window unless I seall out big bucks for Generator.

Any ideas or comments?  Thanx.
