I need some help, how do you position external swfs instead of them loading on the top left of the stage?
I think I know what you want.
Make your external movies the same size as your original movie.
Then place your content in your external movie where you want it to appear.
Load your external movie onto the layer above the original.
Create an empty movie clip and give it an instance name. Put the empty MC where you want the external swf to appear (where you want the upper left corner of the external swf to start). Load the external swf into your empty MC.

hrmm mr electrongeek gave me the actionscript for it before but i lost it and he is not online on AIM as much but I do know about the making the external swf the same size as the stage and positioning the content. i will try that empty movie clip one. if anyone knows the AS for it, please share, thx!
Well yes if your external swf is bigger than the stage you are loading it into then you aren’t going to see all of it. That makes sense doesn’t it? As for loading into an empty MC - let’s say you give your empty MC the name ‘holder’. Then you can simply use:
holder.loadMovie("externalfilename.swf");
