    Combobox dropdown not dropping down in external SWF?

    I have a combo box in my flash document. The combo box is in an external SWF, that is being loaded into the main SWF.

    As a stand alone SWF the drop down works. In an external SWF, it does not.

    Does anyone know how to make this work in an external SWF?

    This may have something to do how you refer to it. Can you show how you refer to the combobox.

    Thank you. I actually got it working. All I had to do was copy the combo box and it's assets folder from the external SWF, and paste them into the the library of the main SWF that was loading it, and then it worked fine.

    I thought that was a bit strange, but it worked like a charm.
