I’m having major difficulty finding any information on how to preload from an external loaded movie named “slide.swf” to preload a MC and specific frames on \_level0 and preload 3 external .swf files too…

Is this even possible? I just seem to be going around in circles with this! Any help would be really apprecaited

ps. i’m using flash mx
