i am working on a flash file which loads a bit of text from an external text file. but the block of text that i have set to dynamic does not anti-alias when i preview, and its animaiton is quite clunky. am i missing something?

you'll have to embed the font caracthers in the textfield. check the properties tab.
and if there's a lot of text in it, it will slow down the animation.

loadVariables("index-flash-today...then in a couple levels i have a text field dynamic, var=text
and a txt file with &text=test

your textbox needs an instance name to be included when you target it in you loadVariables, ie;
loadVariables("flashtoday.txt... root.mytextbox");
