I hope that I can explain this. Okay, I followed the loading dynamic text from external sources tutorial, and it worked fine. But, I need to load some more text on a different page. However, this page will not have the button that goes to it on the same timeline. The timeline that is linking to the page is on my expanding menu timeline. How do I link the .txt file to the main timeline from the sub-timeline that was made for my menu?

Did that make sense?
