hi everybody i tried to get some answers earlier regarding my description bellow , please take a look at that attached file and clean my mistakes

bellow is attached fla.zip files which includes 2 fla files and 2 swf’s.  
the problem i have is when i test contact.swf or contact.fla it works fine but when i load contact.swf as external swf into a main.swf the button in contact.swf doesn’t work anymore. the best way to understand me is if you test both swf’s and you will see what i am talking about.

my original project includes more buttons and more external swf’s

thanks for any help

The problem is you are loading one movie into the other so \_root.address is looking for a mc called address on the \_root of main.swf

i just removed the \_root.
