Hello,  
I have been playing with the Kirupa scroller tutorial ([http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/scrollbar.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/scrollbar.htm) ). I have been able to get it to work as a separate independent movie and swf file, but when I try to use the same steps and embed it within another movie it stops working.

What I have been trying: while in the main timeline of the main movie, I build a new movie clip using the tutorial. When I place an instance of the scroller movie clip on the main timeline, it will not function.

Should I be making some adjustments to the actionscript to get the scroller to work?

I hope I have given enough information for someone to give me a suggestion.  
Thanks for your help in advance.
