Can you delay something from loading?

I am trying to set up this movie so that my hall_picture clip finishes playing the “open” part of it before the test.swf gets loaded into the hall_holder movie clip…can this be done?

on (press) {
tellTarget (“hall_picture”) {
gotoAndPlay(“open”);
}
}
on (release) {
_root.hall_holder.loadMovie(“test.swf”);
}

Thanks,
-M

wait, you don’t want it to load before then, or you dont want it to play before then?

Sorry, let me try to clarify.

In my first clip I have labels on “open” and “close”,

when a button is pressed, the telltarget plays the “open” and changes the alpha properties on my “movie holder” to 100%.

I guess I am wanting a way so the second part doesn’t happen until the “open” part of the first movie is done.
So that my movie holder isn’t available or seen until the the picture frame is open to display the movie.

any better at making sense?
