1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant

Hi --

I am totally at a loss. I work on Flash CS3 on two different machines and I
am getting a "1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant"
on one of the machines but not the other. I have a working movie that I
compiled into a SWF file on the first machine but the same FLA file will not
compile on the second machine. I have run all of the Adobe updates, etc. and
validated that the Flash Player versions on the machine are the same
(9.0.115). I can even run the compiled SWF from the first machine on the
second machine without any issue. Any ideas?

Thanks

Rich

Hi --

I found the error. I had not defined the correct path for my class files
inside the IDE.
