hi ninjaturtle,
i had the same problem.
i think its made with a newer version of Flash...
ive got Flash MX and probably its made in Flash MX 2004...
because the other (older) Flash files are openable...

Hi ninja,
just turn on multiline in the properties panel of the dynamic text frame in flash.

This might be bit off your question, but you could put multipler varibles into flash with a bit of scripting on the flash end.
When typing they dynamic text field in resolume, you could use a delimeter to seperate values or text you like to put into the flash. eg using the '^' as a delimeter, youre text in resolume would be a^b^c^d .
In the flash newVarible=varibleFromResolume.split('^')
So now flash will split the varible from resolume into a array and you will get,
newVarible[0] = a
newVarible[1] = b
newVarible[2] = c
newVarible[3] = d
So now you can use these to control 4 diff stuff in flash.
Hope this is helpful.
Cheers.

Made an example swf.
File at
http://www.iworkforfun.net/midibox/textflash.zip
Works like it should. Just that in resolume it doesn't always update real time. Sometimes you've got to load it to the channel again after changing the text in resolume. Sometimes you don't.
Cheers
