I have seen other packages that write FLC files that will playback in a player but not be able to be read into the softwre for editing. See if you can get your animations as a series of TGA or GIF files. That way you can use NUMPIC to create your animation. Of, see of DTA.ZIP from the library will break the FIic apart and put it back together for you. -Brian
