*shakes head*

You're just not getting this, are you? When you right click on a
Flash file you will get a menu for options pertaining to the flash
file itself. While there isn't (and never was) functionality for
directly right clicking on an embedded object in a Flash file you can
simulate right click functionality using the methods posted by both
Travis and I (obviously you haven't read them or something) The
method involves editing and adding menu items to the primary Flash
file's right click menu. The only limitation that I'm aware of is
that there are a couple menu items that can't be altered/removed so
you're stuck with them by default. You can also DYNAMICALLY alter the
menu items that show up in a right click depending on whatever
variable circumstances you setup.

PS - read slower, in my last post I never said anything about saving
XML data to a database.
