Movie clip name

If _root is the main movie clip how do I find out the name of an externally loaded clip?

Cheers, J

What do you mean how do you find out? Do you mean how do you write the path to it?

If yes then it depends on how you loaded it. If you loaded it into an empty MC (say named “holder” for the sake of argument) using loadMovie and the MC in your external file was named “myMC” then the path would be:

_root.holder.myMC

:hr:

ok I’m out of ideas here. I have the main movie and an externally loaded movie. On the externally loaded movie the preloader doesnt work, just goes to 100% and stays there untill the movie is loaded. Anyone got any ideas?
