Problem using CSS in Flash MX 2004

Question

While working through a tutorial using Flash MX 2004 and CSS
StyleSheets, publishing the page produces the error below each time
I attempt to publish the page and I am unable to continue. There
doesn't seem to be a problem with the code, and the TextField.as
file is in the location where this error indicates that it is not.
Can anyone help?

Answer 1

I found the problem!!
While exploring the Fireworks MX 2004 folder located under
"C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Application Data\Macromedia\"
folder I discovered that this folder was empty. So, I connected the
old hard drive and investigated the contents of the corresponding
folder on that drive. Discovering the wide assortment of files and
folders in that folder, I simply copied the contents of that folder
to the Fireworks MX 2004 folder and retried running the application
and IT WORKED!
Thanks for all your communications and in depth
troubleshooting steps, I will keep them in may Application
troubleshooting Tool Tips for future reference. I have included the
actions used here which brought about the successful resolution of
this issue so that if you'd like you might include them in any Help
Desk Methods you may have. It was truly a collaborative effort
because I would not have thought to explore the Application Data
folder to resolve this issue without you pointing me in that
direction.
Thanks again!
