If you’re reading from an ASP you can do a couple things.  
A) if your movie is using an onMovieClip(); command to function, loadVariables(); command, then you can add onClipEvent(data){  
gotoAndPlay(myStartingFrame);  
}

on clip event “data” will exicute when ever data completes it’s load into the flash player.

In addition to that, you can simply put a variable at the end of your ASP, something like

flagLoaded=true;

then in your FLA you could use something thing  
if (flagLoaded==true){  
gotoAndPlay(myStartingFrame);  
}

Both of these methods seem to work… though I’m only just starting to explore them myself.
