Hi,

I have this script on my main timeline:  
[AS]  
stop();  
this.createEmptyMovieClip(“tntHolder”, 2000);  
this.tntHolder.\_x = 0;  
this.tntHolder.\_y = 100;  
onEnterFrame = function() {  
if (MyTalent != CrtTalent) {  
tntHolder.loadMovie(“talent/talent”+MyTalent".swf");  
CrtTalent = MyTalent;  
}  
};  
[/AS]  
and on a button:  
[AS]  
on (release) {  
MyTalent = “0”;  
}  
now…this doesn’t do anything, if i change the line reading:  
tntHolder.loadMovie(“talent/talent”+MyTalent".swf");  
to read:  
tntHolder.loadMovie(MyTalent);  
and change:  
MyTalent = “0”;  
to  
Mytalent = “talent/talent0.swf”;  
[/AS]  
it works, but alas I can’t have it done like this. It needs to be variable driven so I can do things like “next” or “previous” and whatnot. I know my loadMovie code is butchered, but I have no idea how to incorporate something dynamic (MyTalent) into something static (talent/talent(variable).swf) I tried basing this code off a for loop, but as you can see that didn’t get me very far 😛

Thanks
