I am attempting to do something that seemed fairly simple to accomplish in flash mx a few years ago, and it is beyond me in flash cs3.

i have a swf file that i would like to play one time as an intro at the beginning of a swf that i would like to loop. can someone walk me through the actions for this? or direct me to a tutorial?

TIA!
