TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at Main()[E:\MacMenuSource\Main.as:23]

the code is

package{

import flash.display.Sprite;

import flash.events.MouseEvent;

import flash.net.navigateToURL;

import flash.net.URLRequest;

import flash.display.Loader;

public class Main extends Sprite{

private var _loader:Loader = new Loader();

public function Main():void{

mc_star.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonCl ick);

mc_gear.addEventListener ( MouseEvent.CLICK , buttonClick );

mc_apple.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonC lick);

mc_photo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonC lick);

mc_buy.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonCli ck);

mc_contact.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,butto nClick);

//_loader=new Loader();

addChild(_loader);

}

private function buttonClick(e:MouseEvent):void{

var url:URLRequest=new URLRequest();

switch(e.target.name){

case “mc_star”: url.url=”bg2.swf”; break;

//case “mc_gear”: url.url = “bg2.swf”; break;

//case “mc_apple”: url.url=”bg4.swf”; break;

//case “mc_photo”: url.url=”bg5.swf”; break;

//case “mc_buy”: url.url=”bg6.swf”; break;

//case “mc_contact”: url.url=”bg7.swf”; break;

}

_loader.load(url);

}

mc_star.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonCl ick);

Error1009 means your trying to access something that isn't instantiated yet. Make sure your movie clips all have instance names.

Maybe you have conflicting class references. Try renaming the Main class or the class of the "bg2.swf". Below is an example of loading external SWF's.

import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.ProgressEvent;

function startLoad()
{
var mLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var mRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(“MouseActions.swf”);
mLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onCompleteHandler);
mLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onProgressHandler);
mLoader.load(mRequest);
}

function onCompleteHandler(loadEvent:Event)
{
        addChild(loadEvent.currentTarget.content);
}
function onProgressHandler(mProgress:ProgressEvent)
{
var percent:Number = mProgress.bytesLoaded/mProgress.bytesTotal;
trace(percent);
}
startLoad();
