Question

S.O.S.

Hello.

I am using Macromedia Flash 8 Professional (I STRICTLY USE AS2) and working on an interactive quiz that contains 500 questions. We are all aware that when an fla. file contains so many graphics, animations, etc., it slows down the swf. file and sometimes even causes the *Not Responding* error. So I improvised and found a way. I made 500 fla. files which are all linked and are classified according to their categories. For example, under Chemistry is Matter and under matter is 15 questions. those questions are seperated files from each other as mentioned above. I want to ask you guys how to keep the score even when an external file is loaded. For example: on item#1 I got the correct answer. A "1" point should appear on let's say the upper right corner of my stage. Then, when i click next to move on to the next question (which is to load an externanl moviecip), it should take me to item#2 and that "1" point should be on my item#2 file and also i need to find out how to post how many correct answers were made after every lesson/topic every after lesson/subject.

SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH GUYS. I'M A FILIPINO. I DON'T KNOW IF I MADE MY SELF CLEAR. I HOPE I DID. I NEED YOUR HELP. I AM GOING TO SUBMIT THIS TO MY TEACHER AND IF I DON'T I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO GRADUATE. THE SUBMISSION IS NEAR AND I ONLY HAVE THE MAIN MENU JUST FOR NOW MAYBE JUST A WEEK LEFT. I WOULD BE FOREVER GRATEFUL AND WOULD PUT YOUR NAME IN MY CREDITS.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPLIES IN ADVANCE. GOD BLESS!

How do i do that? I'm sorry i'm just good at thinking not doing. This is what i want to see:

1.) Answer 15 questions. (15 external movieclips)
2.) When i answer question # 1 and i get the response "CORRECT!", I acquire 1 point. Then i click the "next" button, it will load the next external file which is question # 2.
3.) When question # 2 is loaded, my 1 point should already be there.

4.) When i get the correct answer in question # 2 it should add another point to the 1 point earlier so that makes 2 points.
5.) After question # 15, let's say i got 7 correct answers. I want the 7 to appear on the next frame or next external movieclip. (I know dynamic texts are used.)

I need actionscripts and i need detailed explanations to do these. I am not a programmer or an "actionscripter". PLEASE HELP.

Thank you for your response.

-NOTE. I JUST NEED ACTIONSCRIPTS FOR THE SCORES AND DETAILS HOW TO INPUT IT. THE "CORRECT" RESPONSE CAN BE DONE THROUGH "gotoandplay at frame or label".

ALSO IS THERE A WAY TO CONVERT MY 500+ SWF FILES INTO 1 TO MAKE IT LOOK LIKE AN APPLICATION THAT HAS ITS OWN ICON?

THANKS FOR THE REPLY!
