Hi,  
I have made a webpage in Dreamweaver, besides other things in the webpage, there two animation file, which I did in flash,  
and they are in the first page, both files start playing when the page loads, but I want to change this, I want to stop the second file to play ( which I did by puting a stop action in the first fram) until the first flash file is finnished, then the second file starts to play,  
because these two files are seperate I have no idea how to give it an action to do so.  
your help is appreciated.

Thanx,  
Manou
