[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial][COLOR=black][FONT=Arial]Hi there,[/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial] [/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial]I don’t get much luck with forums so I am hoping someone will be able to help. I have a scroll menu as a ScrollPane component with menu buttons which take the user to a spacific frame lable within an external SWF (which is loaded form a main SWF already) My code for the botton is:[/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial] [/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial]on (release){  
\_root.badges.gotoAndPlay(“executive”);  
}[/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial] [/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial]badges is the SWF name loaded as external SWF from a main stage (call this main.SWF) where the menu sits as well. “executive” is the frame label I want the timeline of badges.SWF to go to when you click the button, but this does not work? [/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial] [/FONT][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial]It was working when I have this on another flash file. I recently had to move this into another flash file its still the same setup as in the other flash file, there is a loader clip and menu on the main timeline of my main.SWF and all it has to do is go to a specific frame label within the loaded external SWF from the main timeline of the main SWF.[/FONT][/COLOR]

Hope this makes sense. Cheers.[/FONT][/COLOR]
