Please please please can somebody help me…

I have loaded seperate swf files into a main flash file that contains buttons etc and an empty movie clip that my swf’s load into. I know that it works fine asi can already load things in. But!!! when i try to load a swf that contains more buttons etc they refuse to work. Is this a common problem or am i just being stupid!!!

i would realy appreciate the help
