RE: FLASH: Another simple newbie question

[Jenny]

Thanks Sarah. I found that exec command, but where do I put the file

name/location that I want to be opened? If I enter the address in to either

the command or the argument boxes, it negates the exec command for the

standalone player. Do I need to put in a second command?

Sorry to be so "newbie" about all this stuff.

hi Jenny!

I don't know if this will solve your problem or not because I don't know

if it would work for a PDF file, but it's worth a try...

Instead of GEt URL for the button action, use the exec action under the

pull down menu that says "for stand alone player". these are special

actions that work only for projector files. This is what I use to link

other files to buttons in my .exe files, maybe it will work with this

PDF file for you. Try it and see, I guess. :)

hope I helped a bit... :]
