I have _file1.swf_, _file2.swf_ and _file3.swf_

I have a flash document with an empty movie, (instance name: empty\_mc) clip on the stage. I would like to load _file1.swf_ when the this movie starts. So the intially swf that needs to load should be file1.swf without any pressing of button etc. I would like to load file1.swf in empty\_mc initially.

any help please. I really need this to get going.
