hi,

I was trying to do something, I created a movie and then attempted to load it onto another movie. To make it faster & easier for me, I went ahead and did a loadMovie("",""); then the movie that is loading I have some text on it which I’m loading externally as well. Im using the following for that: loadVariable("","").

Everything works good, however when I load the movie that has the external test loading onto the main movie. It doesnt load the text. Did I miss something ?

I would appreciate any help anybody can provide…

thanks
