Loading swf into empty MC scaling

I have a external swf that I am loading into a empty movie clip. This swf is 504x360 but the MC is smaller 260x186 .. How can I make this fit into the MC.. When I test this it is larger than the entire stage. I am using MX 2004 Pro..
This empty MC is inside another swf, that is loaded into a main swf.

thanks

use createEmptyMovieClip load into it your external swf, then resize the MC you created.

Thanks Mike.. I tried that but it still would take the size of the loaded swf.. So I changed the size of the pics to match the empty movie clip.. Works I guess..

Thanks for the reply..
