Hi,  
What i have is several swf files. I load them using the “loadMovie” function into one file. One of the swf files is a menu. Is it possible to unload and load movies depending on what button is pressed on the menu.

I have tried calling the movie clip, that the menu file is loaded into, with the instance of the button i used for that particular button but its achieving nothing.

Hope someone can help. Thanks in advance for your help. :thumb2:
