Catching nested movie clip events

Hi,
I have a mc with an onRollOver event.
I have a child of this mc, mcChild with an onPress event

The mcChild event is never caught as the parent clip catches the event.

I understand in 2004 MX and flash 8 there is a movieClipLoader class which allows the user to sort this out.

Unfortunatley i use Flash MX.
Does anyone know of a way i can get the child movieclips onpress event to get caught?

cheers
