Hi,
I’ve come accross loadMovieNum and loadMovie, I can use them to have the swf load up in to the top left hand corner but I can’t seem to find out how to script it to the area I want it to load to.
Thanks

you can do something like this:
create an mc like “storing\_mc” and use this script:
storing\_mc.loadMovie(“someMovie.swf”);
and you can use properties too:
storing\_mc.\_x = any-value;
storing\_mc.\_y = another-value;
with this it’s easy to put your movie into anyplace in the stage.
