Hey.  
I have a Main movie (main.swf) a seperate button (button.swf) and a movie clip (clip.swf). The button is loaded into the main movie with loadMovie and when I press on that button I want the clip.swf to open in main.swf. (I have a empty movie clip in main.swf). My problem is that I don’t know how to link the button (that is loaded into main.swf) to go to the movie clip in main.swf and load clip.swf.

Could anyone help me with this? 🙂
