I am loading an external SWF onto an Miscorsoft Projector EXE file. But, it is stuck in the top left corner. How do I reposition the SWF?

I have tried creating a new movie clip to act as a placeholder, and loading the external SWF into that movie clip. But, the SWF does not load.

By the way, I am using Actionscript 2.
