If you load external files into a Flash Player 7 application that are not Unicode-encoded, the text in the external files will not be displayed correctly when Flash Player attempts to display them as Unicode. You can tell Flash Player to use the traditional code page of the operating system that is running the player. To do this, add the following code as the first line of code in the first frame of the Flash application that is loading the data:
system.useCodepage = true;
Set the system.useCodepage property only once in a document; do not use it multiple times in a document to make the player interpret some external files as Unicode and some as other encoding, because doing so can yield unexpected results.
If you set the system.useCodepage property to true, keep in mind that the traditional code page of the operating system running the player must include the glyphs used in your external text file in order for the text to be displayed. For example, if you load an external text file that contains Chinese characters, those characters are not displayed on a system that uses the CP1252 code page, because that code page does not include Chinese characters. To ensure that users on all platforms can view external text files used in your Flash applications, you should encode all external text files as Unicode and leave the system.useCodepage property set to false by default. This causes Flash Player to interpret the text as Unicode. For more information, see System.useCodepage.
