OK, I'm sure this is incredibly obvious to everyone in the world but me; I need to play a long series of "modules" that create a very long presentation (over 30 minutes) and burn them to a cross-platform CD. What do I use to tell the projector to load the next projector into it's window? I am assuming it is a frame action script. I want it to run right off the CD and seamlessly load one module after another. I understand that I will have to create a different sequence for the Windows version to account for the different file names.

OK, I found a way to do it with FS Commands (execute then quit a few seconds later) but it is kind of clunky as it "flashes" while switching to the new player. I'm sure you guys have a better idea. It is too long and too large to play as one piece, it would require too much memory. Hep me!

Another way to do what you're looking for might be to use the loadMovie command. You could save all your modules as seperate SWF files then load them into one single Projector.

Hope this helps,

Thank you it worked perfectly. I didn't realize I could use LoadMovie to replace the current movie. You Rock!
