How is it possible to use a variable from one swf. in another swf.? What is the scope for these variables?

thanks!

In the first swf declare them,
In the second swf load variable - put "use global"

Play a bit with them, and in 10min you'll solve the problem!

This should work:

loadVariablesNum("first.swf", 0, "GET");

first - name of the movie where the variables are
0 - level
Get - send using GET

well, Milan I also think thin won't work also

the swf should b loaded to the one that will get a variable from and the can import/export variables (pass them) by useing levels
for ex.

_root.textBox=_level1.mc1.inpuText

I've made the two files
- first.swf
- second.swf

First - has variable declaration and on the last frame (any) load movie - second.swf

Second - has buttons and if statements, and load var...

download the file, and publish both...

You'll see what happens!
One more thing - You need MX to run them.

Think this will solve all your problems!
