onSetFocus & Local Connection problem - help!

programming flash
1

I’m using the Macromedia Tut on L/C and files to create two movies which work together but have stumbled across a few problems. I’ve managed to get the two swf’s to communicate from one txt field to another, but I want the first movie to have several buttons which on (press) send a symbol to the txt fields in the second movie (many different txt fields…). I cannot get this to work.

Does anyone have any experience with Local Connection that knows what to do then I’d be grateful!

I’m using these files from macromedia and the below code to communicate within the movie (but I’d like that to happen between swfs instead…)

**Macromedia Files

**

var labels = ["A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F", "G", "H", "I", "J", "K", "L","M", "N", "O", "P", "Q", "R", "S"]
for (var i = 0; i<labels.length; i++){
		this["button"+i].tLabel = labels*;
		this["button"+i].onRelease = function(){
				_root.currentTF.text += this.tLabel;
		}
}

for (var i = 1; i <= 7; i++)
{
	_root["text" + i].onSetFocus = function ()
	{
		_root.currentTF = this;
	}
}

_root.currentTF = _root.text1;
_root.text1.setFocus();

Hope this makes sense.
