Thanks Robery, just d/l'ed and recompiled, good to go now, no errors.
Wow, the website guys certainly don't make that easy to find!!!!

It is here for posterity:
http://www.esri.com/apps/products/download/index.cfm?fuseaction=download.main&downloadid=701

All of the links they have send you to the Viewer section which is here:
http://www.esri.com/apps/products/download/index.cfm?fuseaction=download.all#ArcGIS_Viewer_for_Flex

On that page, search for "ArcGIS API for Flex" and you will find the API downloads. Of course they are not next to each other of even close.

Thanks for the links, I must have been using a different release of the API (maybe 3.0 beta).  Compiled without error once I used the links above.  Thanks.

I'm using FB 4.0.1 and 4.1 SDK.  I have imported the 3.0 Prerelease FV source code and added the agslib-3.0pre-2012-03-15.swc to the FB libs folder. 

I am getting a bunch of errors. 

I looked at this page to see if FB 4.0 is still supported:  http://resourcesbeta.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-viewer/concepts/index.html#/Getting_started_for_develop...

Any ideas?
Thank you

Eric,

   The Flex Viewer 3.0 Pre Release has a minimum Adobe SDK 4.5 requirement.

Requires Adobe Flex 4.5 SDK or higher, which in turn requires at least Flash Player 10.2.

because the Viewer is based on the API and the 3.0 API requires Adobe SDK 4.5 as minimum.

[JeffreyUtter]

I'm running XP 64bit with Flash Player v 11.1.60, downloaded sdk 4.6 (and checked Use default SDK 4.6) and beta FV 3.0 (I'm a FV modify xml type of guy) and ran it in Flash Builder 4.5 (to test my modifications). I set the  Flex compiler Adobe Flash Player options to
Use a specific version 11.1.60  
No errors occurs when I compile.
But when I try to run it, I get a "Required Adobe Flash Player version not installed" window. It says C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\Flash10u.ocx
This project requires a more recent version of Adobe Flash Player. You might need to install the Flash Player or reinstall Flash Builder.
Installed Adobe Flash Player version: 10.3.181.34
Required version: 11.1.0.0
If I say No, the process stops.
If I say Yes, the Flexviewer tries to open up and wants me to upgrade to 11.2  Reading Adobe information, version 11.2 will not work on XP 64 bit.

My add/remove programs shows I'm running Flash Player 11.1.60
Is my Flash Builder corrupt or am I missing something?

You might have different versions running in different browsers...

[DasaPaddock]

You can see what version you have installed at:
https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

Also, the 32 bit Flash Player can run on 64 bit systems when running in a 32 bit browser.

You can also test this using Chrome which includes its own Flash Player plugin.

Dasa,
I went to your link, and it does say I'm running v 11.1.60
Maybe I need to uninstall it and install the latest version. Your thoughts??
