hi all!!!

here I am again with yet another newbie question… I’ve searched the web and seen millions of people have the same problem and i’m assuming it’s been fixed a copious amount of times before but still can’t seem to find the answer i’m looking for…

in short

when i load text.txt in sub.swf everything works using loadVars technique

here’s the tut i used  
[w.republicofcode.com/tutorials/flash/loadvars\_bc/](http://w.republicofcode.com/tutorials/flash/loadvars_bc/)  
but as soon as I load sub.swf into main.swf using the text no longer appears…How can i fix this?

here’s the tut I used for the preloader on my main.swf  
[w.kirupa.com/developer/mx/preloader\_transition.htm](http://w.kirupa.com/developer/mx/preloader_transition.htm)  
things i’ve tryed:

adding \_root, \_parent, \_level0 after myText\_txt

also read up on embeding font’s which not sure if i did it right but failed also.

Please help i’ve been searching for a while…  
i’m about to gotoAndHang.self();lol

thank you!!!
