Implement data big question

Question

I need to build a map in which every time a customer rolls
over a state a tooltip shows up. Now the thing is that the company
building this map only has stations in only 26 states. They want me
to create a map with all the states working but only displaying the
26 with stations. The client wants to activate the others and add
information to the tooltips everytime a new station is created in
one of those states.
I need to know how can I create some time of integration
where the client can activate those states without going into the
fla. I was thinking in creating a check box for each state, and
then adding this AS:
if state1 == 1 or 0 (depending the checkbox, on and off
respectively)
then "activate function"
else do nothing...
I dont know how to do it, please I need your help.

Hi
You could use an XML file that holds all State locations,
when the client wishes to update all they have to do is add the new
info to the file and its loaded into Flash every time. No need to
open the .fla and recode anything.
This also works in reverse, if they close a location they can
remove that info from the file.
Hope it helps
