I have a problem Flash. Help needed!

I am currently working on the design for a website. I want to make things lighter so, I figured out that using a textField for the text to appear would solve the problem.

Now that the design was done, the rest of the text will not appear because I am using this character: &.

Well, first of all I placed all my text in notepad then I load it in the textField in flash 5. I tried putting "&" and '&'. However on the " or the ' will appear when I test the movie. So, I went using & # 3 8 ; perhaps using plain html will do but still, the character & is still there, that will not appear on the the swf file.

Yeah I know I can just use the word "and" but the company name uses "&."

If there's only a way I can set this character visible on the front end. I just encountered this so, I hope you guys can extend a help.

Just a thought but have you tried saving the text file as UTF-8, Choose save as, then Pick UTF-8 as the protocol in notepad. That should put in the neccesary characters to make the & symbol show up.

Yes I tried but noting appeared at the swf file :-(. I guess you see what I did at www.bwiccorp.com . Look at the announcement box at the lower left part. Teporarily I placed the word and instead of the original "&" sign.
