    hi ppl.

    what i m trying to do seems simple ...

    i have three things :

    a .txt file
    a main movie
    a small movie that i import in the main one.

    on a frame in the main movie that s what i do:

    loadMovie ("phonelist.swf","blank");

    simple and it works...

    in the small movie (phonelist) i import a txt file with variable etc.. it works too when i preview it...

    >>>>BUT when i run the main movie and click to load the small movie it loads it but missing the text file...

    why??????

    hi Mani.
    this is and intresting exercise
    just do the simple thing in the text option panel.
    add /: infront of the text field that u have given.
    e.g.
    your text field name is "input"
    then write
    /:input

    surely this will work as I have done it before posting the reply.
    bye
