Flash has nothing to do with getting data from an Access
database.
You need to focus on either ASP or ASP.Net, a scripting
language for the
server script either JScript or VBScript, middleware usually
ADO or ADO.Net
and finally SQL. All of these items go together in a server
side script that
could work with non-Flash or Flash client interfaces. You
should find many
tutorials on the internet with these items as it has been
done for nearly a
decade.
You also can use ColdFusion.
For Flash, you need to learn LoadVars Actionscript class if
you plan to
communicate data in the URL Variables format or XML
Actionscript class if
you want to use XML data format. It will not really matter to
Flash what is
on the server side as it will only be sending and receiving
data in either
of those two data formats (URL Variables or XML).
If you want to look at some Using VBScript, ASP, ADO and an
OLEDB Connection
examples I use for seminars in Web database you can take a
look here:
http://www.hosfordusa.com/ClickSystems/courses/webdb/.
However they lack
Flash example but would work "as is" with a Flash example.
Once you look at some of those options, you can then form
more specific
questions for this forum and especially with using the
LoadVars and XML
Actionscript classes or the XML connector Flash component.

I need help integrating Microsoft Office, Outlook and Calendar with my job and is it possible

Ok guys I am new to the iphone 4s. I just dumped my Blackberry after 10 years. I need help integrating Microsoft Office, Outlook and Calendar with my job and is it possible? Also I need it to automatically push email and appointments to my phone? I will buy any app just need to know which is best for work environment. Here is what I am thinking about doing. http://www.groovypost.com/howto/apple/sync-iphone-or-ipod-touch-calendar-and-con tacts-with-google/ Is this the best way? For personal use I am using paid G whiz app

I use Google Calendar Sync to sync my work Outlook calendar to a gmail account, then sync that to my iPhone. It works well for me for the past couple of years.
As far as mail itself, just ask your it folks for settings for remote access to your exchange account, and then set it up on the phone.
As far as working with Office docs, to be able to actually edit them and such, look in the app store for DocsToGo or QuickOffice - they both are good but each has it's pros and cons, so on balance it's down to mere preference i think.

Need help for flash builder

i need help for flash builder 4 and papervison 3d. I need to create a slider with it ranges of value from 10 to 50 to adjust the camera values for the camera.fov and also need to create it for the yaw of the object from 0 to 360. I try to look for any slider event and classes in this program but cant find any, btw, i need to use the AS only project file.
here is my codes:
can you please tell me how i should modify the codes?
package
    import flash.display.BitmapData;
    import flash.display.Sprite;
    import flash.events.Event;
    import org.papervision3d.materials.BitmapFileMaterial;
    import org.papervision3d.materials.BitmapMaterial;
    import org.papervision3d.objects.primitives.Sphere;
    import org.papervision3d.view.BasicView;
    [SWF (width="800", height="600", backgroundColor="0x000000",frameRate="30")]
    public class EarthBitmap extends BasicView
        private var sphere:Sphere;
        public function EarthBitmap()
            super(800 , 600);
            var earthmaterial:BitmapFileMaterial = new BitmapFileMaterial("../assets/Earth.jpg");
            sphere = new Sphere(earthmaterial,100,20,18);
            camera.fov = 25;
            scene.addChild(sphere);
            addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,rotateSphere);
        public function rotateSphere(evt:Event):void
            sphere.yaw(0.2);
            singleRender();

Turn the click handler into a full on separate function. Then store all the views in an array and use Math.rand() to randomly choose one.
Something like this:
<fx:Script>
     <![CDATA[
          var questionsArray:Array = {question2,question3,question5,questionRed,questionGeography};
          function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent){
               var randomProblem:int = Math.floor(Math.random()*(questionsArray.length));     //generates a random integer between 0 and the total number of questions in the array (arrays are 0-based)
               navigator.pushView(questionsArray[randomProblem]);
     ]]>
</fx:Script>
<s:Button id="randomProblemButton" label="Next Problem" click="buttonClickHandler(event)" />
Haven't tested that, but something along that line should work

I need help installing flash on windows 8

I need help installing flash on windows 8

Chris… No I was using the desktop version, I cannot stand the M version, guess it would be nice if I had a touch screen..…when I finally got my computer to download the Acrobat Standard XI program, not sure how it worked, but I think it had something to do with Windows 8 not allowing itself to update all my apps and programs, even though my computer was set to automatically update any Windows/Microsoft updates…finally I got my Windows updates done, it downloaded like 36 files…and then I had to restart,(which also could have been playing a factor)…so finally got the program downloaded on Windows 8…but then I tried to run the new program and it says install serial #...so I assume that it was asking for the serial # for the Acrobat Standard XI…finally after googling the web, I found somebody that said try your older serial # from the previous program, and when I did this it finally works.. you would think with a brand new Windows computer I would have no problem installing Windows Updates…somebody needs to make a sticky about this, I am sure I am not the only one haiving this problem..
Thanks,

Need help Installing Flash player 10.3 for firefox. It stops at 50%

So I have Windows Vista Basic Home, I tried updating my Flash version in firefox because it was out of date, but everytime it start downloading it , then I get the a message that says "Error " Appliation in use." I uninstalled it and followed all the suggestions on the websites nothing is working. I even uninstall google chrome thinking it was the problem but I'm still having that problem so I really don't know what to do because now the only place Flash player is installed seems to be Google chrome that I had to redoawload, but everywhere else tells me that I need to install it.

Need advice, sql server with asp or oracle with asp

hi !
i have been given a task to improve the design of a sql server database with more than 1 million records, front end is asp (code has to be written also, keeping user interface same). I would like to use oracle with asp, is it practical or should i go for sql server. i need your advice.
thanks in advance
lavinder

Depends on your definition of "practical".
My guess is that most of the work will be porting your back-end code from SQL*Server to Oracle. The Migration Workbench can help here, but there are often things that you do in SQL*Server code that you really don't want to do in Oracle code (i.e. frequent commits).
There is a good chance that you'd be able to improve the scalability of the application faster by fixing the problems that exist in the SQL*Server implementation. I think Oracle is inherently a much more scalable platform than SQL*Server, however, so I'm not trying to dissuade you from moving. It really depends on the end state you need to achieve and the amount of time & effort you're willing to put forward.

Need help to start with some file and text manipulation

Hello script mavens,
I need help with starting a script that does the following:
-within a base folder it takes an inventory (list?) of all the files (which happen to be image files).
-creates a new folder inside the base folder and calls it imagesX where X increases by one every time the script is run
-moves all the files into the images folder
-within the base folder it creates a new text file and calls it imagesX.js
-writes a "//-" into imagesX.js
-then writes the list of filenames into the imagesX.js twice, separated by an empty line, and adds a semicolon to the end of each filename and saves imagesX.js
-from a folder a level above the base folder it copies a file called index.html into the base folder and renames in indexX.html
-in indexX.html it replaces a string "replaceThis" with "imagesX.js"
The task is more complex but this would help me tremendously do the rest.
If I am asking for too much on this forum please let me know

This should get you started.
The description of how you want to write the data isn't clear, but the rest should work (untested):
property imageNum : 0 -- last used ImageNumber
-- within a base folder it takes an inventory (list?) of all the files (which happen to be image files).
-- get the folder:
set baseFolder to (choose folder)
-- now get the files within it:
tell application "Finder"
set fileList to every file of folder baseFolder as alias list
end tell
--creates a new folder inside the base folder and calls it imagesX where X increases by one every time the script is run
tell application "Finder"
set imageNum to imageNum + 1
set newImageFolder to make new folder at baseFolder with properties {name:"images" & imageNum}
-- moves all the files into the images folder
move every file of folder baseFolder to newImageFolder
--within the base folder it creates a new text file and calls it imagesX.js
set textFile to (open for access file (baseFolder as text) & "images" & imageNum & ".js" with write permission)
--writes a "//-" into imagesX.js
write "//-" to textFile
-- then writes the list of filenames into the imagesX.js twice, separated by an empty line, and adds a semicolon to the end of each filename and saves imagesX.js
-- need more info here
-- a blank line between each instance of the file name? or all file names, blank line, all file names again?
-- an example, please
close access textFile
--from a folder a level above the base folder it copies a file called index.html into the base folder
--and renames in indexX.html
--in indexX.html it replaces a string "replaceThis" with "imagesX.js"
-- the easiest way of doing this is to read the file and write a new copy with the changes - that's easier than changing it in situ:
set indexHTML to (read file "index.html" of folder (container of baseFolder))
set {oldTIDs, my text item delimiters} to {my text item delimiters, "replaceThis"}
set indexHTML to text items of indexHTML
set my text item delimiters to "imagesX.js"
set indexHTML to indexHTML as text
set my text item delimiters to oldTIDs
set indexFile to (open for access file ("index" & imageNum & ".html") with write permission)
write indexHTML to indexFile
close access indexFile
end tell

Need help switching Flash slideshow

Here is my problem, I want the links on the left to change the Flash slideshow on the right when clicked.
I want to stay on this page, so only the Flash slideshow changes.

HELP!

Shouldn't matter what version ... that hasn't changed much and is done pretty much the same way as long as I can remember. Which seems to be getting shorter and shorter all the time.
Anyways, nice site though. Well done.

Need help inserting flash movie into article...

I inserted video into flash movie. I loaded the .swf & .fla files onto a server and went into the properties in the flash movie and pointed to the server to pull the .fla file & the movie controls .swf file. I can preview the movie in flash with no problem.
I am wanting to use the object code that was created as part of the .html file that was generated by flash and insert this into an article to display the video. I path the .swf file in the object code to point to where it resides on the server but the video will not play using just the object code. Is there a way to do this using just a object or embed code without the need for scripts?
(I am using CS4 version)

If the swf file does not reside in the same folder as the html page that loads it, then if the video is dynamically loaded into the Flash file, chances are the targeting in the swf needs to be adjusted. If the swf files just targets the video by its filename alone, try putting the video file in the same folder as the html file and see if it gets loaded.

Integrating flash with swings

Hi,
Im looking to integrate flash with swings. This is for a desktop application, not a web based application. I was looking for some help on this, if someone could help me with it.

Flash is proprietary technology and they don't play nice with others. Same reason why you can't load an MSWord doc in a Java GUI. If Flash WAS an open technology, then perhaps someone would/could build a plugin or some way to do it.
