    Ok, I must be doing something TOTALLY wrong because whatever I do, I can't get it to work. Could somebody PLEASE explain to me what I have to do? What's the difference between Level and Target under location, why does it say 0 next to it, when sould you use the Expression, and what are the parameters when you put in the url for the movie??? I think I've tried just about every combination possible. Thank you VERY MUCH if you help me out.

    Level pertains to stacking order, your main movie is on Level 0, you can load movies on top of this main movie by loading movieclips into higher levels.

    level 1 is higher than level 0
    level 2 is higher than level 1 etc....


    If you have a movieclip playing in layer 1 and you load another movie into level 1, your new movie replaces the old one.


    Target tells the new movie where to load:

    on (release) {
    loadMovie ("http://www.estudioworks.com/customers/pearl/song.swf",
    "_root.track");
    }


    In this actionscript:

    song.swf is my external movie that I want to load.
    track is the target (It's a movieclip that has nothing in it)But it's sitting on the stage.

    Thank you, but for some reason it still won't work. Can it still work if the target is on my computer?
