Hi
This maybe easy stuff for some but i am still learning the ropes as far as AS is concerned. I have swf movies in a folder. How do I make a grand movie, or just an .fla file so that it can take each of these swf movies and play them in a given sequence. What i want is that the next movie in sequence should be loaded only after the first movie finishes playing. I can do it by importing the movies in my lib but i want to avoid that Any ideas
thanks in advance

check out this tutorial: [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/full\_site.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/full_site.htm)
If you want the movies to play in a sequence, just use loadMovie at the end of each movie (on the last frame) to load the next one in.

I did get the idea. The reason why i don;t want to write something on the last frame of a movie is cause i am using the swf files in other places as well, the sequence and the files do change. So if i write on the end of one ( the loadMovie I mean) then for the next time i have to make a copy of the swf file, any way i could avoid it??
