Hey everyone!

Here is what i need to do…  
On my site, i have 3 different Flash Files. Each playing a different part .eg text, content, menu. (because of the design, i can’t have just 1 file, plus i want 3 seperate ones~!!!)

Now what i want to try and do, is have the MENU(swf1) target a scene or frame in the CONTENT flash file(swf2)

So that when you click on about us button, it will target (eg.) frame 3 of SWF2, which contains that information!!

ANd also have the MENU(SWF1) be able to also target frames in TEXT(SWF3)

Bassically im guesisng its passing variables to and from multiple movie clips!  
i have no where to start.

Has anyone done anthing similar?  
or has a FLA i can look at?  
or can post some code!!!

Thanks agian KIRUPA!!!
