Hi there  
I have a movie called “main” that loads a movie called “logo”.

In the movie “logo” I have also load another movie called “letter”.

On “main” this is the script that loads “logo”:

loadMovie(“logo.swf”,"\_root.logo");  
this.enabled = false;

On “logo” this is the script that loads “letter:”

loadMovie(“letter.swf”,“letter”);  
this.enabled = false;

* * *

Now here’s my question. I want to resize “letter” when it gets loaded and I was able to find this script:

\_root.letter.\_width = 20;  
\_root.letter.\_height = 20;

But for some reason it doesn’t work. Does anyone know why?

Thanks
