Hi, (I 've read other \_global topics & didnt help )  
my second swf (which will display as a tip in windows) reads data from Access. Buttons are in the first swf. Onrollover sends an “id” to the second swf.

first swf says:

\_global.num = 2;  
loadMovie(“second.swf”,“golge”);

second swf:  
movie\_on\_load:  
any\_num = \_global.num;

tip says: (which is a moveClip)  
loadVariables("GetDetail.asp?Record="add String(\_root.any\_num) ,this);

…

there is a BIG mistake for me …

I couldnt find anything. What’s wrong???

loadVariables("GetDetail.asp?Record="add String(\_root.any\_num) ,this);

there u have to remove the \_root

loadVariables("GetDetail.asp?Record="add String(any\_num) ,this);

ok, I fixed it … Moved “any\_num = \_global.num;” into Movie Clip. It works (fine) but this time it works too slow. When I rolls over a button, it waits … waits … and waits … then shows the result.  
-about 15 seconds- isnt too slow?

I guess I am using something too much … Should sit and think …
