Loading external swf files into blank movie clip

Im having some troubles getting this to work… ive done it before but i cant remember how i did it and i no longer have work to look back on.

I set up a button with the following action script

on (release) {
 	movieContainer.loadMovie ("peacenews.swf",".swf")
 }

The file im trying to load is peacenews.swf and the instance name of the empty movie clip is movieContainer Am i doing this wrong… this seemed like it would work logically to me but then again… im a flash trainee :smiley:
