</div>

here is what I want to do.  
I have two movies: main.swf and website.swf  
I load the website.swf into main.swf.  
after loading it, I want to call an action from website.swf and after that, I want main.swf to go to a label within website.swf  
I have this action script for a button within website.swf

on (release) {  
label = “tmv”;  
\_root.door.closedoor();  
}

for the label part, I think I need some trick there.  
I dont know how to make a rigth path.

I load the website.swf using this script from main.swf  
loadMovie(“website.swf”, “loadwebsite”);

thanks for your help!!

You have to give more details concerning the structure of your swfs. But if you want access a variable that is in website.swf from main.swf, all you have to do is put **loadwebsite.** in front. For instance

```auto
loadwebsite.myVar ++;

```
