ok i wanna be able to load both variables from an external .txt file, and a external .swf file at the same time. now the problem is i need the .swf to only open if the movie is at frame 15. here is my current code:

on (press) {  
loadVariablesNum (“test.txt”, 0);  
}  
on (press) {  
if (frame = 15, loadMovieNum (pg7.swf",2) else play) {  
}  
}

doesnt seem to work and i have no idea how or why. if anyone could give me some help, i’d be muchly appreciative 😃

      loadMovieNum ("pg7.swf",2);
   }else{
      play();
   }
