Controling mc from another mc

I'm using actionscript 1.
I want the "home" menu button to also control a second mc. It's instance name is pl7_main. It's a secondary menu that needs to reset to frame one when home is pressed. The home button is inside another mc. What's the best way to do this?

on frame#1 of second mc add a trace - trace(this);
this will output the path that you must use from home button

hth :)

Can you give me an example of the script. I'm quite dumb with actionscript even though I've been working in Flash since flash 5. Learning slowly

what is the output when you add the trace ?

_level0.instance7

I uploaded a scaled down version for you to see.

Hey! I got it! I used the following script;

onClipEvent (load) {
_level0.instance7.gotoAndStop(1);
}

Thanks for the help!
