hey, if i set a variable from an swf that i load into the main movie, will the main movie recognize the variable?
thanks :beam:
Sure, if you target it right 
erm. target?
what would i need to target?
Target the variable 
To use a variable you need to target the timeline it is on.
So lets say you load a movie to an empty movie clip called “container” and inside that loaded movie is a variable on the main timeline called “myVar” you would target it as container.myVar
ahha! thanks a bunch. i did not know that. :beam:
