I had a few external swf’s loading into my main movie, and after several revisions I went through my directory and deleted the swf’s that were no longer being used.  
Now I am getting an error that one of them cannot open, (it is one of the deleted that I am no longer using)  
I know where the code should be, because of the timing of when the error appears in the output window, but I cannot find  
code anywhere telling this movie to load.

Any ideas about what I could have done and how to find it?

Here is the actual message:  
Error opening URL “file:///P|/Web%20Projects/CBS/Natri/NATRI%202003/hosted.swf”

open the movie explorer under _windows_,  
… expand everything,

it’s got to be in there somewhere
