flash movie has 1 frame with about 10 layers.  
on each layer there is a 10-frame movie clip  
after one movie clip, I want another movie clip on another layer to play. the other mc “instance” is named “mc02”  
on that 2nd mc, it starts with a stop() frame so it doesn’t play right away.  
the 2nd frame is called “start01”  
here’s the action script on the last frame of the 1st MC:

stop();  
\_root.mc02.gotoAndPlay(start01);

I thought this would work, but it doesn’t…any help greatly appreciated!!!  
thanks in advance
