controlling main timeline from externally loaded swf

[hapihapijoyjoy]

please help....

i need to control my timeline from the externally loaded swf file.

basically all i want is a button on the last page of my externally loaded swf to go to the main timeline and play a frame "frExams"

i load the swf's through this script (from the button inside my main timeline)

btnChap1.onPress = function()
{
    
    if(_global.Chapter == 0) 
        _global.Chapter++;
    _global.CurrentChapter = 1;
    _global.movie = path + "chap1a.swf";
    gotoAndStop("frChapter");   
}

my movieclip that loads the swf file, contains this script:

loadMovie(_global.movie,loading_layer);

now what i need is a button at the last page of my externally loaded swf file to go back to the main timeline and play the "frExams" frame.


please can anyone help me out???

_root.gotoAndPlay("frExams");
