I am trying to build a Flash application which would display data from a external source and scroll it from left to right.
I am new to action script world, i have found an example in which text is scrolling but here there is only one text field. I would like to have multiple text field depending upon my data loaded from external source. How can i achieve it. Do i need to create 10 text fields if my external data returns 10 records.
Any advice on this would be appreciated. Thanks
It depends on your task, if you need 10 lines of text information that moves independently, so you will need 10 text fields. Or you could scroll one text field and change it's content with a new information (next record). For scrolling of the text field you will need Timer or Enter frame handler or Tweening engine, as for changing text you will need some logic, like if text goes offscreen - show another text data.
For me, your question looks very similar to this one, check it, maybe it will be helpful for you.

I have taken over an MS Access database that was created by an employee that has moved on. It appears that he has created a form in the database by importing a paper form that is used within our company. What makes me believe that he imported a paper form is the exactness of Access form in relation to the paper form.
I am not sure how to ask query this using Google nor Bing. Can someone point me in the right direction on how to do this, please? I need to do the same thing with another paper form.
Yes, June7 is right, this is a handy technique.
Scan your paper document as JPG or PNG
Create a blank Access Form, and from the Design ribbon menu, choose "Insert Image" and select your newly created JPG or PNG scan
For the image object, check the properties window and make sure the "Sizing Mode" is set to Clip (and not Stretch or Zoom)
Now re-size the Image on your form so you can see everything correctly.
Now add Text boxes on top of the image, to create fillable text fields, exactly over the same place as the ones in the scanned image behind your text boxes.
You can then make a Table with the same field names, and update the Form to use this Table as it's Data Source on the Data Tab of the Form properties.
Once you have the form working perfectly nicely,
a handy time-staving step is File -> Save Object As -> change the Form dropdown to Report
Now you have created a Report that is printable using the same data table you created earlier (and write macro or VBA code make sure you print only one record at a time if that is the normal behaviour you expect)
Is there a way to make text change every time someone refreshes the page?
Basically, I want it to choose from a random text database and select 1 sentence and put it on the website. Is there anyway how?
You can use JavaScript for that :)
Just add a window.onload() event that fetches this data from the database and inserts it in the page.

I have to display all the text based on the actions done within my game. I have to add the text below the current text, but how would I move all of the previous text upwards so each time it adds a new text it will place it in the same spot and only move the previous text, as shown in the image.
how to generate a text dynamically one by one based on the game actions performed in flash?
No.
You just need to use List from Components/ User Interface, this makes what you need.
here you have some examples:

I have created an Access 2013 report consisting of several Text fields all bolonging to one record. However when I open the report, in some cases a field is cut up over 2 pages, and some text is missing/lost between the pages.
Apparently i need a "reputation" to post images, and am totally new in here, so I dont have that, but I do have an image of the problem that I can send if there is another way to do this.
There must be somewhere I can set a property on the report, grouping or field or whereever, but I cant find the setting, and have tried a lot of things allready.
It would be ok, that the field is moved to the next page if it caannot be fitted into the current one, as long as the text within the field is not lost.
Hoping you can help me...
Best regards

I currently have a form in access which has text boxes which refreshes itself every time you click on it. I am assuming that access has a dynamic way of updating the tables, ie as soon as you move the cursor away from the text box, it updates the tables. Is there any way of making this static ie. I should have a button which after clicking updates a set of text boxes into the table. Although this is not a feature which is desired, I am planning to use this to prevent multiple users corrupting the data in the table.
What you're asking for is standard behavior... The record will not be saved until the record has lost focus, rather than the field. If your form is saving after each field loses focus (desired in some applications) it has been set up that way (probably with an OnChanged event on the textbox).
