I have 20 external .swfs im trying to load into 20 blank movieclips .  
i am trying to load them randomly into each blanck movieclip without the external .swf’s duplicating.

so far I have this code

```auto

// define blank mc array
mcarray = ["1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "10", "11", "12",
"13", "14", "15", "16", "17", "18", "19", "20"];
// define external .swf array
swfarray = ["1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "10", "11", "12",
"13", "14", "15", "16", "17", "18", "19", "20"];
// calculate random index for blank mc array
randommc = random(mcarray.length);
// calculate random index for external .swf array
randomswf = random(swfarray.length);
//load random swf into random mc
loadMovie((swfarray[randomswf])+".swf",
"_level0.ui_mc.content.win.portfolio.ui_"+(mcarray[randommc]));

```

But this code only loads 1 random .swf into 1 random empty movie clip.

Im trying to load all the movieclips with all the external .swfs without any  
of the .swf’s repeating. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
