I'm accessing the same SharedObject from two different programs at the same time on the same computer (i.e. locally, not remotely), and I wanted to know in one program if the other program had changed the SharedObject (besides just refreshing it). I had thought that the send() method or sync event would work, but those only work on remotely accessed SharedObjects. Is there something similar I could use?

no you'll have to check and compare data on a regular basis that's all. – BotMaster Aug 19 '14 at 00:38

If you have two swfs running on the same machine, LocalConnection will let one swf call functions in another swf.

Thanks for replying, I looked it up and that seems like exactly what I'm looking for! There's only one problem, I tried using it and I get the error "Error #2044: Unhandled SecurityErrorEvent:. text=Error #2047: Security sandbox violation: LocalConnection.send:" followed by "blah.swf cannot access blah2.swf", even though I used conn.allowDomain("localhost"); – user2885503 Aug 19 '14 at 17:58

To fix this (temporarily at least), I added conn.allowDomain("*") and conn.client = this. Now no errors are popping up, but the method I called still isn't doing anything. – user2885503 Aug 19 '14 at 18:12

Also, I set up a StatusEvent listener on my sender, and it's giving me an error, but the code is null. – user2885503 Aug 19 '14 at 18:26

Hey! Post your code in new question so people can see you have a LocalConnection code question. I don't have time now. – moot Aug 20 '14 at 01:04

I did, but no one has even viewed it =\ - Thanks for your help, though! – user2885503 Aug 20 '14 at 01:48
