Importing

[Stoked]

I made a background on on Flash MX in one project and then I started a new project. Now I want to import the background from the first project so I can use it on my new Project. The old project had 5 layers to it. Can someone tell me how to do this?

save the old to swf
and import it into your new one ;)

Thats all I do? Do I need it in a different scene or do I just add it to the layer I want it to go on?

When I import the movie clip to the new project I want to use it as an animating background. When I import everything goes on one layer and it doesn't work at all. In the old one there is 2 scenes and 5 layers on the first scene and 3 layers on the second scene. When I import them they all don't come along with it. What do I do?

the frames from the swf
come to the timeline of the new project

I maybe way off here, but can't you just open the library of the one and drag the movieclip into the new project?
