hi… ive never made a preloader ever before. i looked up the code of a few and kinda got the hang of the functions used. the only thing is, the code of my movie is such that i cannot afford to use any of gotoAndPlay or gotoAndStop to make the preloader run my movie when its loaded.

so i wanna make a preloader in another fla and then execute my swf from there. is it possible? if yes, how do i go about it?
