Helping a friend out with her flashsite.
She gave me the original .fla, but for some reason, I can't open it.
Can anyone see if they can open this (before I tell her it's fucked)?

what version of Flash are you using VS what version of Flash was it created in?
Flash MX can't open Flash files created in MX 2004

I can open it in MX2004 Professional with no probs...

Ah.
I was wondering if that was maybe the problem.Dang.
Thanks.

you can tell your friend to save it as the older version and then you can use it in both versions.

Actually, Flash MX can open MX 2004 files, but only if you save it using a certain method:
1. Launch Flash MX 2004
2. Go to File > Open... and open your file.
3. Go to File > Save As... and save it as a Flash MX fileEvidently, only by saving a file that's been opened from the Open... menu can you read an MX 2004 file. Weird, I know. But it works.
