I have an internal swf file play within a main swf file. At the end of the internal swf file timeline I want the timeline of the main swf to go to a certain frame and stop.

Please advise. Thanks.

Put this at the end of the internal swf timeline …

\_root.gotoAndStop(frameNumber);

I haven’t tried this, but I think it might work 🙂
