taget path problems with targeting a frame of a movie thats not loaded

[tezz2000]

Hello all, I have tried lots of work arounds and still can't get this to work.
I have a stop frame that loads a movie, I need to target a frame of that movie.. even though its not yet loaded because I have one target for all my content. this works whens its loaded:
on (release) {
_root.container.loader.work.gotoAndStop("work_ad");

}
is there a way to have an path for a frame for a movie that is not yet loaded?
like:
on (release) {
_root.container.loader.work.gotoAndStop("work","work_ad");

}
any help would be great... thanks!

Movie needs to be fully loaded before targeting some labeled frame...

The workaround is to set a variable holding the targeted frame label, and to check that variable on the first frame of the loaded movie (once fully loaded...), so that the playhead can be re-directed to the appropriate targeted frame, according to the value that was set in the above variable.
