Twice last week I've been asked to checka problem students were having in their ICT lesson when saving their flash work, both times the student has clicked save as then been given an error for every item in the library saying the item is corrupt and should be deleted before saving. However they are only images which have been imported and can still be viewed/edited fine in flash. This is proving a big problem and causing students to loose lessons worth of progression each time it occurs.

If you try to save as a few times flash will normly lock up, crash and give the following error:
