hello. I have a function in a movieclip:

```auto
onClipEvent(load)

```

.

The thing is, I want to be able to controll when the function is going to be executed, not just once when loading data at the first time. how can I accomplish this?

I have a variable inside this function that I need to be able to change dynamicly…
