Preload swf!?

[TRINI]

K, i',ve already asked this question before, but the answer that I recieved did not help me.

I have swfs loading up into empty movie clips. What I want is for when the user clicks the button to load the swf, it is preloaded , and a cool preload bar appears.

I already know how to preload entire scenes, but preloading induvidual elements like these r stumping me.

HelP!

4 example u have a buton that on clik must load a swf into another:
on the button action enter a load movie action with your-movie-name.swf for URL, target for LOCATION, and the instancename of the emty movieclip for TARGET.

loadMovie ("desired-movieclip.swf", "instance-name");
don't forget to edit the emty movie clip!
Wiew //Grid//Snap to grid and after that select the shape of your movieclip and stick it to the left top corner!!!

forgot somtin..
the movie clip you want to load should have two scenes:
on the first scene you must put the cool loading bar and the actions to go to scene 2 when the it is loaded
on the second scene put your animation or whetever you want to put!!!

try this tuturial!!!
