Loading XML locally with AS3

Question

I have a project in Flash Builder and I use Bulkloader to load some configuration files. When I run the project from Flash Builder or in a server, everything works as expected, but when I run the SWF from another location (for example "my documents"), the project can't load the XML.

I'm not sure if this is a security problem or something similar.

Thanks in advance!

You need to use this settings manager to add locations that are safe for your SWF to access data from.

Use the Add location feature to add the drive that your My Documents folder is contained within.
