I’m having problems loading variables from an external text file into a movieclip in the main timeline. it’s actually about 2 movies within a movie…
so… root.player.song - and then i have the dynamic text box in about the 10th frame or something. i can’t seem to load it in there. can someone help me out?

We’ll probably need to take a look at your fla. I can tell you that root.player.song does not look right, but that is about all I can say right now.
oh… depending on version of Flash, you may use loadvariables() or loadvar() there are several different methods. Would need to know more from you before answering.
