Hi, i’ve searched the forum and i couldnt find an answer.

Anyway i want to try load multiple movieclips using a for loop and displaying them in different spots.

```auto
 for(i = 1; i < 5; i++){
    createEmptyMovieClip(["target"+i] , i);
    loadMovie("stub1.swf", ["target"+i]);
    _root["target"+i]._x = position;
    position = position + 250;
} 

```

First of all , how can i change that “stub1.swf” to change its value like stub1.swf, stub2.swf stub3.swf etc. Also, it doesnt seem to create multiple movieclips; it only makes the one.

Thanks in advance
