How do you go about passing a variable from the main movie to another movie loaded in level0?

I want to click a menu item which accordingly loads a new movie in level0, basically replacing the original movie, while going to a specific frame in the new movie as specified by whichever button was pressed in the previous movie. Hope that makes sense.😛
