Hola everyone.

I am trying to make a flash presentation. These people want ot have MASSIVE amounts of speech in it, plus the option to turn off the speech and have word balloons in place. Don't ask why. ;-)

But I need to have a global variable, say, "speech" defined in my master movie. When set to 1, speech is on, when set to 0, speech is off.

I divide the presentation up into manageable chunks, and load them in as external movies, piece by piece as they progress further into the presentation.

How can I get these external movies, once loaded in, to check the value to see if speech is on or off?

I have to make sure when speech is set to "off" or "0", that a newly loaded external .swf loads in and plays with speech off.

Any help would be a god send.

thanks everyone!
