Hello,

I used the LoadMovieNum command to load an external .swf, however I am unsure how to make it play. I tried a “play” action and a “gotoandplay(1)” action, but no luck.

Can anyone let me know how to -

1.) get the .swf to play once loaded? my current script is -

[indent]_on (release) {loadMovieNum(“walls.swf”, 1),_  
[/indent][left]2.) tell the .swf that is loaded to stop on a specific frame?[/left]

[left]Any help is greatly appreciated. [/left]
