The Adobe Sudoku example does provide a way to check for updates, although taking his example and rewriting it for your own purposes would not be that easy. Still, could be done. And you’ll still need the regular updater to update your entire app.

I’m trying to base my own updater on the Sudoku example, looking to see if a certain XML file online has changed, and if so, to check a directory for any new files, then download all of them.

Will require me to rewrite where my app is accessing these files as currently I use them inside my assets directory (we are talking about SWFs, XML, and MP3s). So all of that will have to be contained in the application storage directory.

My application needs to run in a kiosk mode, with two types of named printers. “Receipt printer” and a “ID Card printer”.

Has anybody come up with a solution “to specifiy a printer with out having the printer dialog window appear.

Yes, I would like to have print directly to the printer.
