  1. In the Address text box, click your mouse at the end of the text. In the example above, the path to the folder is
    C:\WR Documents\Flash Movies

  2. Type a backslash ( \ )at the end of the current path followed by the actual file name of your Flash movie. In my example the final product will be

  3. Copy all the text in this text box in preparation for the next step. This is the complete file name path to your Flash movie.
