Hi  
I have a .swf called “A” this .swf will load a movie clip called “B” and another movie Clip called “C”

This is what is on the first frame of “A”  
loadMovieNum(“B.swf”, 7);  
loadMovieNum(“C.swf”, 8);

B movie clip has moving buttons and a scroll bar.

C movie clip is a smartclip that loads variables into 2 dynamic text field and a jpg.

I want by clicking in any of the buttons on “B” control what varaibles and jpgs will be load it in to “C”.

I have been trying for hours but I can’t get it to work, hope that some one can help me out

Thanks

Alex

Ok what you need to do is reference “C” using \_parent

in movie “B” add \_parent.MovieClipC Where MovieClipC is the instance of the “C” Movie…

now you’re loading it into depts (i forget what thats called) i’d have 2 Movie Clips on “A”, and load “B” into 1 of those MCs and “C” into the second one. =)

Its confusing but, that might work =)
