[CS3] Question about levels and paths when I load an external SWF

[fabrizzzio]

Hi guys...

Im loading into a main movie, externals SWF's using LoadMovieNum.

loadMovieNum ("section1.swf", 5);

I refer to the root of this loaded movie as _level5
The problem is that I want to change some properties of objects that are IN the main movie, not the loaded one, so I dont know how to use paths...
For example if I have a button in the loaded movie, is it right this code?

_level5.buttonA.onRelease = function() {
_root.clipinthemainmovie._alpha(50);
}

or maybe...

_level5.buttonA.onRelease = function() {
_level0.clipinthemainmovie._alpha(50);
}

I cannot communicate from the loaded movie to objects in the main movie.
What is going wrong?
Is it good this method to load movies?
or is better using loadMovie and load the content into an MC?

Well, guys, many thanks in advance!
BTW, Im using AS2.

You need to use MovieClipLoader - plenty of examples already here.
