I am using mc and few scenes. I am trying to have a button in one mc load an external txt in another mc with the dynamic text field.

this is the script for the button classDescription in a MC called nav\_menu

on (release) {  
var style\_sheet = new TextField.StyleSheet();  
var css\_url = “photo\_style.css”;  
style\_sheet.load(css\_url);  
holder.styleSheet = style\_sheet;  
loadVariables(“classDesc.txt”, this);  
}

I want it to load classDesc.txt into the dynamic text field (instance name is holder) in a MC called body\_dynamic.

What is needed to get it to load the external when the button and the text field are in different movies?
