Reading all text from a .txt file

[Ayman]

Hi guys,

Quick question. Ofcourse I know that you can read flash variables from a text file, which is formatted like: @var1=firstVariable@var2=secondVariable and so on.

But is there a way to read normal text out of a textfile? Is it through the bytearray class?

Thanks!

Just make one variable for the whole file. If you're wanting formatted text I suggest XML with a CDATA node.

I actually dont have any control over the file. It is just there somewhere, and has plain text. Cant I just read the entire content as a string?
