I have not attemped this before and could not find information on exactly how to do this.

I have 2 .swfs - 1 has assets in the library that are set to export on the first frame, but nothing on the stage.

The second .swf is the master program that I want to loop through the library of the assets file and display all the movieclips in the master file.

I have read some things about ApplicationDomain or using skeleton classes with import statements to make the assets available but have been unsuccessfull.

Does anyone know where I can find an example on how to do this?

Thanks!  
TJ
