Dear Scott and Jonathan,
                                            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.
I do not understand, I followed the standard procedure but FLASH option is
not on the list.

thank you in advance
