disappearing text in browser

I made a website for the national guard and included 2 animated banners for it.
This was a rush job, and it all worked fine. Now the text on one of the banners
has disappeared. If I look into the flash swf file in the browser the text is
there, if I look at the flash html file it is not there, nor is it on the page
itself. The other banner was made the same way, with the same font, they are
both using static text. Any ideas will be appreciated. I really don't want to
recreate the flash files to upload new ones as I am no longer employed with
this site, but as we all know I still have to fix problems.

The site is at https://www.nm.ngb.army.mil/recruiting/index.html

You know, I've had some problems with text in the past and found that I
sometimes would mistakenly create a dynamic text field, which won't animate
unless you embed the font. Static text never gives me a problem, but the
dynamic fields work a little differently.

Good luck,
Dave

Thanks for the reply. I think I'll just have to go in, break the text apart
into a graphic, and re upload it. I know it is static text though just like the
other banner on the page so that is not the issue. It must have just saved out
with a glitch of some kind, Flash does have a mind of its own from time to time.
