I am having trouble figuring out how to load a movie clip and unload a movie clip in my main timeline using a rollover instance on a button.

A movie clip loads at the beginning of my movie. You then rollover a button and a new movie needs to load in the same place as the movie clip that loaded at the beginning.

Hopefully this makes sense.

Thanks in advance for the help.
