How can I make saved games (using cookies, but if there's a simpler or more effective method, let me know) in flash with Actionscript 2?

What I want is basically something that when clicked on creates a saved file, which can later be accessed by clicking somewhere else.

Can anyone tell me how I would go about doing this? (In AS2)

The links Soapaintnice provided should due you fine.
But just for the record, Flash doesn't really have
'cookies,' instead they're called SharedObjects.

Saved games are made by saving a SharedObject locally
on the user's computer, and adjusting the code to access it
in the flash if the user has a saved file.

Once you understand them they're very easy to use.
Good luck. :]
