Who can explain why mc2 movie gets printed in snippet below?

mc1.\_visible = true;  
mc2.\_visible = false;  
printNum (0, “bmovie”);  
mc2.\_visible = true;

If I comment last line then mc2 is not printed. I assume the reason is that mc2 becomes visible before printNum is finished. So, is there a way to know if flash is done with printing?

Thanks.
