hey

this is how i externally load a file

ActionScript Code:

```php
stop();
var mLoader:Loader = new Loader;
var mRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("stick finish.swf");

mLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onCompleteHandler);
mLoader.load(mRequest);

function onCompleteHandler(loadEvent:Event)
{
        addChild(loadEvent.currentTarget.content);
}

```

but how do i un-externally load it so remove the externally loaded file and just leave the original one.

thanks
