            </div>
                                                        thank you for
            the answer, yes, I have tried what you suggest, the thing is
            that in the popup menu (filetype list) when I tried to open
            a FLASH file, it does not show the option FLASH.  <br>
          </div>
          I do not understand, I followed the standard procedure but
          FLASH option is not on the list.<br>

                            i am new using FLASH. I have install all the
                            requirements and I was able to run
                            succesfully the Sedov problem and the
                            WindTunnel problem in serial and in parallel
                            and varying some parameters. The thing is
                            that I also install visit 2.10, and it seems
                            to work but the plugin dedicated to read the
                            FLASH data it was not installed, then I can
                            not visualize any data.<br>
                            <br>
                          </div>
                          <div>I have made the following steps:<br>
