    Hit CTRL+8 and choose Movie clip
    rightclick the first frame of your new mc and choose 'Actions'
    Then hit 'loadMovie' under Browser/Network
    in the URL field type the path to your external movie that you want to load.

    Ok important is to NAME your MC Placeholder. Not the symbol itself but the new Instance. Your MCshould have the same size as your "main" .swf file.

    After generating a 2snd swf File namend e.g. second.swf you can now load this swf into your placeholder which is now hopefully named as eg "PlaceHolder1"

    To load the 2nd Movie intoPlaceholder 1 just type

    loadMovie("second.swf", PlaceHolder1)

    Thats all

    Any questions

    just MailBack
