y don't u load your external file onClipEvent(load)


well try this


onClipEvent(load) {
loadMovie("test.swf", this)
}



hope it will work

enterFrame actions are performed every frame, so you shouldn't use loadMovie actions within them...

I still have no luck...is there any tutorial on it?
Please let me know

many thanks

Ctrl F8, create a new movie clip. Leave it empty and put one copy on the main stage. Give it an instance name of 'target'. then on frame one of your movie use:
loadMovie ("file.swf", "_root.target"); that's it.
