Basic

I know how to use this program, but I'm not sure if that one matters at all for flash. C++ totally lost me. So my question is. Can Basic be integrrated into flash cartoons?

No, at least, not to my knowledge anyway. Flash has it's own Programming language, called Actionscript.

But wouldn't it be possible to use VBScript?

I can't be 100% sure on that, but I would assume since Flash is an internet based language, it would allow one to have the option to use Java and VBScript. VBScript is almost like Basic...

You can use function calls to JavaScript and VBScript from Flash provided the functions are on the page the Flash is on. Either way, I suggest that you learn ActionScript. It can do A LOT more than people think.

agreed.. ive been experimenting with the XMLSocket object.. alot better than i expected.. opened up alot of potential..

if only macromedia would sacrifice a bit more file size for some quicker code and a few extra doodaas!

I'd love it if there were more server-side features, like you could pull data directly from a database without having to load variables from a PHP/ASP page to do so.
