I have a movie clip which i want to use loadmovie. I get my external swf to load correcty, but it wont load in the movie clip…it loads far off to the right and down even though i made the movie clip the same dimensions as the swf that i am loading in. How do i get it to load exactly where i want it? Thanks guys!

change your loadMovie action

yourmc.loadMovie();

change “yourmc” to the instance name of the movieclip you want it to load into!
