HI well this is the code to load swf…

stage.scaleMode = flash.display.StageScaleMode.NO\_SCALE;  
stage.align = flash.display.StageAlign.TOP\_LEFT;

var urlToLoad:String = “demo.swf”  
//path to SWF that i want to load

var swfLoader:Loader = new Loader();  
//you have to make a new loader variable to load the SWF

var swfRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(urlToLoad);  
//you have to make a new URLRequest to put a URL to load from

swfLoader.load(swfRequest);  
//using the .load method will actually load the URL into the loader

addChild(swfLoader)  
////////////////////////////////// end  
this code load swf…but when i tried with 1 swf… i got the error

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
