i need to include a text that is in a external file (txt). I can call him from the \_root, but when i try to do the load from one movieClip it doesn’t work.

this is the code that i put in the button:

on (release) {  
loadText = new LoadVars();  
loadText.load(“data.txt”);  
loadText.onLoad = function() {  
texto.text = this.historia;  
location.text = this.location;  
};  
}

thanks in advanced!
