Hey,  
I know actionscript pretty well but I have a problem I have yet to figure out. I’m loading a movie through an empty clip, and I can’t control the loaded movie’s X, Y position. I’m having more problems then just that and flash is acting very spooky. I have tried to make this movie in both flash 5.0 and MX and neither seem to like this idea of what I’m trying to do. I also need how to control volume though flash. If anyone can help me please let me know! sanman918 on AIM or [sanman918@chartermi.net](mailto:sanman918@chartermi.net). Thanks

Hey, I need some help loaded some movies clips into my current scene. What I’m wanting to

do is load a .swf on a moving object. The moving object in its own movieclip called audio

bar. Now I have a seperate .swf called track1.swf I want to load track1.swf on top of

aubiobar. This is what my action script looks like.  
on (release) {  
\_root.audiobar.createEmptyMovieClip(“trackholder”, 1);  
\_root.audiobar.trackholder.loadMovie(“track1.swf”);  
\_root.audiobar.trackholder.\_x = 225;  
\_root.audiobar.trackholder.\_y = 100;  
}  
Now the track1.swf does load and it does follow the motion of audio bar, but I no matter

what i set its X,Y position to be its stays in the same sport. And also track1.swf is a

digital counter and when I view it through the audiobar thing it doesn’t count right even

though it works fine when just viewing the track1.swf I know its sounds complex but email

me and I can maybe explain it better. And if anyone knows where I could get some help on controlling volume on flash that woule be great. Thanks!
