I am trying to burn .exe’s onto a cd for a portfolio. I gotta use the .exe cause i have to be able to launch some pdf’s from the flash movie. Problem is, the flash movies arent “talkin” to each other. for instance i got a button that loads another movie… dosent work, and i got a movie ayer that loads two others automatically, dosent work… i am using

loadMovieNum(“navigation.swf”, 1);  
stop();

to load automatically within a clip and…

on (release) {  
gotoAndStop(28);  
unloadMovie(4);  
loadMovieNum(“web\_design.swf”, 4);  
}

to load from a button…

It all works correctly when i burn the .swf but not .exe

What Gives!

Thanks for your help

Exe is kinda like the html - it just stores the reference to the swf. Have to have the swf too for it to talk to!

Glad you got it worked out. :thumb:
