Hi
i created a container swf w/empty mc that brings in separate videos in via button click and load movie command - i want to save it as a exe to play on a users desktop - when i save the container runs but when i click on the buttons none of the video swfs play - what am i doing wrong ?

thanks in advance

The SWFs are not included in the EXE you create, only the main SWF is included. You have to make sure all the other SWF files are in the same location relative to your EXE as they were to the original SWF so that your loadMovie calls will still work.

Only the FLA you are publishing gets put inside your EXE. All of the other SWFs have to be copied to be in the same folder as the EXE (if they had to be in the same folder as the SWF before you turned it into an EXE)
