hi wiz,

Is it possible to read data from a text file using javascript.

I'll explain the scenario.
I've a flash presentation related to a project. Related to the same project, I've many powerpoint presentation as different .pps files in a folder. I want to show these presentation file names in the flash presentation and i want to run the presentation in powerpoint (NOT IN browser). And these powerpoint presentation will vary time to time.

So the solution I've is link the flash presentation to an html page where I'll call the presentation names from a text file (I've to feed all the names in a text file) and display on the html page and on click run the presentation with powerpoint.

funny??!!! eh!! The thing is I dont know how to read from a text file and i dont know how to run (shell) the .pps with powerpoint .

Please help me or suggest me a better solution!!!
