Array loaded into mc won't show

Created a submenu (lsc_submenu.swf) using an array in a separate .swf file.

When I load it into my main movie (_root) with:
loadMovie(“creative/lsc_submenu.swf”, “_level1”);
everything works fine. Trouble is I want to load it into a movieclip instead of levels so I can load other .swfs above and below this level. When I load the submenu.swf file into a movie clip it disappears and I can’t see it.

Thanks.
