Hi there 🙂

I think this should not be a big deal, but I do not get it to work…

I got a “MainFlash” witch loades an XML with about 60 variables (Settings), in base of a paramater then this “MainFlash” loades another “FlashMovie” and this one needs, all, the same Variables too.

How do I properly pass all the Vars in the new/other “FlashMovie”?

U need to know  
\> I use LoadMovieNum to Level 0  
\> I do replace the “MainFlash”, cause the new loaded “FlashMovie” can have a completly different height and width ( …I don’t think it’s possible to change the Document-Setting in a compiled swf, or is it? If this is possible I would not need to load a separate swf to Level 0…)  
\> the main SWF usually ist about 320x180, the following can be 2x, 3x bigger…

Can someone give me an helping hand with this? 🙂  
Or has anybody an other idea?

I’m doing this with MX2004, but then want to use it in FLASH8 too
