Access .SWF Movie Clip in Flex 2

[hotelechoyankee]

I have a .swf with a few Movie Clips in it (they have instance names).
I would like to place the .swf in a Flex 2 Canvas and then access the properties of the Movie Clips (x, y, etc). Is this possible?

I am having the same problem. Any luck with this?

okay, i found my problem. i was trying to access after the complete event when i really needed to access after the init event. After the init event happened, i can access the properties of the loaded swf. For example, in the init listener I have: MovieClip(loader.content).myClip_mc.sampleText_txt .text = "hello world!".

oh yeah, to load the swf, use a loader or a swfLoader component.
