Working with external data

Question

Hi,
does anybody knows if there's a way to include external data within the extension without modifying the code?
Basically I need to deploy my extension using different settings (depending on user credentails).
It would be nice if were possible to inoculate an xml file or expand manifest.xml in order to add some external data without changing code every time.
Is there a right way to do this?
Thanks!

package
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.net.URLLoaderDataFormat;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.URLVariables;
public class urlloader extends Sprite
public var dataArray:Array
public function dataLoader()
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("params.txt");
var variables:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
variables.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
variables.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
try
variables.load(request);
catch (error:Error)
trace("Unable to load URL: " + error);
private function completeHandler(event:Event):void
var loader:URLLoader = URLLoader(event.target);
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables(loader.data);
dataArray = variables.dayNames.split(",");
dispatchEvent(new Event("loadComplete"));
trace(dataArray[1]);
// in your fla
var loader:urlloader=new urlloader()
loader.dataLoader()
loader.addEventListener("loadComplete",f);
function f(e:Event){
mainText.text=loader.dataArray[1];
}
