Use the following code, put it wherever you want the swf to appear at:
[AS]
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(“ADDRESS OF YOUR SWF”);
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.load(request);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener( Event.INIT , loaded)
```
function loaded(event:Event):void {
var targetLoader:Loader = Loader(event.target.loader);
targetLoader.x = 0;
targetLoader.y = 0;
addChild(targetLoader);
}
```
[/AS]
You can change the x/y position of the loaded swf as well. Let me know if that wasn’t what you were looking for.
