hi there  
I’ve been trying to load an external SWF but keep getting this error:

TypeError: Error #1006: loadMovie is not a function.

This is the code I have:

```auto
location.loadMovie("video.swf");

```

“location” is the mc that loads “video.swf”

This used to work in other versions of flash but for some reason now it doesn’t in these higher versions of flash!?
