Hello,  
I hope someone can help me with this coding issue. I have external swfs that loads in a container on a main swf. When I press a button on the main swf, I would like to load a specific frame from an external swf.

Here is what I have so far:

\_root.overview.onRelease = function() {  
if (\_root.container\_container\_mem.currMovie == undefined) {  
\_root.container.currMovie = “member\_content”;  
\_root.container.loadMovie(“member\_content.swf”);  
} else if (\_root.container.currMovie != “member\_content”) {  
if (\_root.container.\_currentframe \>= \_root.container.midframe) {  
\_root.container.currMovie = “member\_content”;  
\_root.container.play();  
}  
}  
}

Any help will be greatly appreciated.  
Thank you
