Open an external file with as2??

Im building a portfolio on Flash.I have created my menu buttons and need to open files with doc, pdf, avi and swf extentions.
So far I have been using the getUrl command and it seems to work for the pdf and swf. How can I get this to work for the other types?
They all seems to work when I try them from my computer, but once they are burned in the cd, it fails miserably. Help!!!!

adjust your security settings to allow your cd to be in the trusted zone and retest to confirm this is a security sandbox issue:

    hi,
    this is what i use on a win2000 platform:
    try {
    Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
    Process p = rt.exec("cmd /c start yourFile.ext");
    } catch(Exception e) {
    System.out.println(e);
    it is possible that a full path of the file is required.
    good luck

  • How to open an external file in Labview?

    Hi, Who knows how to open an external file in LabView? I want to open an .UDL file(data link API) which is a dialog window letting me input correlated database information, but I dont know how to open this type of file in my LabView Program.
    Thanks.

    A UDL is technically a text file, so you could open it with "Read Characters from file", put the result string into a string control, edit it and save it back using the "Write Characters to File".
    UDLs however have their own configuration dialog embedded in the Windows OS. You can use this dialog in your LabVIEW application. The attached VI shows how to create a new UDL. You can edit an existing UDL by switching the method node to PromptEdit and wiring in an open ADO connection reference.

  • Cant open embedded msg-files with Standard

    Hi,
    my problem is:
    I have embedded some msg-files into an pdf now I cant open the links to the msg-files with X Standard but
    I can open them with X Pro.
    The Problem is I need to get them opened with X Standard.
    When I try to open them with Standard he tells me something about the security-settings wont allow this.
    I already checked the security-settings and I have the option with " open in extern" activated and
    I dont got a blacklist.
    Is there a possibility to open the msg-files with Standard ?
    I would be very happy if you could write me a solution.
    Sincerly,
    David Scharlau

    Dale,
    Thanks for your reply.
    The problem is that I need to use the "fill" in the paint program.
    I have actually just been able to get the file to load into Appleworks paint after reading about using the .pict save. All looked good untill I tried to fill. What happens now is that the fill is very chunky and does not bleed thru at all. This makes it pretty useless at the moment.
    Same problem, with a twist now.
    Looking forward to any further ideas.

  • How to open a DWG file with AutoCAD options (AppleScript)?

    Hi,
    I'm looking for help specifying the AutoCAD options when opening DWG files.  I have DWG files of floor plans that I always want to open at the same scale. 
    I can successfully open a DWG file with the default options using:
    open POSIX file "/Users/crmckinnon/Desktop/cabin_floor_plan.dwg" as alias without dialogs
    But I don't want the default options, so if I try to specify them:
    open POSIX file "/Users/crmckinnon/Desktop/cabin_floor_plan.dwg" as alias with options {class:AutoCAD options, scale unit:"autocad inches"} without dialogs
    I get a "Can't find alias" error.  How do I specify the AutoCAD options?  I'm sure this is due to my lack of understanding of AppleScript.  Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Chris

    I'll answer my own question.  Here's how I specified the options:
    open POSIX file filePath as alias with options {pGSO:original size, pASU:inches, pASR:12.0 / 0.1875} without dialogs
    I had to look in the Apple Script dictionary to get the "codes" to use.  The variable names didn't work.  I think that's because some have "global" in the name which is a keyword in Apple Script.  Here's what the codes translate to:
    pGSO = "global scale options"
    pASU = "scale unit"
    pASR = "scale ratio"
    Thanks,
    Chris

  • I can't open a PDF file with password with my iphone app

    I can't open a PDF file with password with my iphone app, the app send me an error, but the password is correct. This only happend in the new version of iphone. In the latest version I didn't have this problems.

    Can you please share the file with us at [email protected]? Also, can you please confirm that you are viewing the PDF in the Adobe Reader app rather than an app like dropbox, Mail or Safari?

  • How do I make safari open a pdf file with acrobat x instead of reader

    I would like a pdf file from a link in Safari to open the linked file with adobe acrobat x rather than either adobe reader of the safari version.  Where can I set the preference to get this done?

    Aha!  The properties for the plugin file nppdf32.dll for Adobe Reader indicate the file is for Adobe Acrobat.  This misidentification is then used by SeaMonkey as a label in the helper application list. 
    Adobe Reader 11.0.3.37:  nppdf32.dll has version 11.0.3.37.  This is the version in SeaMonkey's plugins folder. 
    Adobe Acrobat 7.0.8.218:  nppdf32.dll has version 7.0.9.50. 
    As for having both Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat on the same PC, this generally works providing Reader is installed AFTER Acrobat.  Reader is freeware, and I want to keep it current.  Acrobat is purchaseware, and I cannot afford to keep buying  upgrades or newer versions. 

  • An attempt to open a pdf file with Photoshop Elements (version 12) resulted in a pop generated by the Photoshop Editor stated "Impossible to execute this operation (opening file) because one of the specified colour is not managed". Is there any mean to ad

    An attempt to open a pdf file with Photoshop Elements (version 12) resulted in a pop generated by the Photoshop Editor stated "Impossible to execute this operation (opening file) because one of the specified colour is not managed". Is there any mean to adapt the file to make its reading possible?
    Did somebody get the same problem?

    It is a high order probability that your SQL's report generator is creating the PDF, not Acrobat (which by design and EULA cannot be used in as/with server).
    That the report generator outputs to an old-old version of PDF bears this out.
    Wiki articles on PDF are very nice for those high level intro summaries.
    To know / understand PDF you purchase and study the ISO Standard for PDF (ISO 32000-1:2008).
    Rather than "PDF validation" you may want to consider addressing the appearent root cause of the problem(s).
    You can change the email2fax application to one that can deal with older PDF versions.
    You can change the report generator to one that can output to the ISO Standard.
    (Perhaps the in-use application can be configured to output to the current version of PDF (i.e., the ISO Standard).

  • I can't open D7200 NEF file with Photoshop CS6. I checked the updates and there are no updates available. What do I do?

    Hi,
    I can't open D7200 NEF files with Photoshop CS6.I checked the updates and there are no updates available.What do I do?
    Nitin

    For the time being, shoot JPEG images. At this time there is no support for NEF files from the D7200 in any Adobe product. It was released at such a time that it wasn't included in the last Camera Raw update. And Lightroom hasn't been updated either. Consequently, there is no DNG converter available at this time. We will have to wait and see what programs will be able to accommodate the D7200 when Adobe releases updates or upgrades that support the camera.
