Hi Guys,  
I have a combo box inside a swf file that is loaded into another swf file. If I run the swf file with the combo box on its own, the list drops down. However, when it is loaded into the other swf, the combo box list doesn’t drop down. I have tried to search for an answer but cant find one. Does anyone know why this is happening?

Thanks

Daniel
