Ok... This is my problem... Please Fast Reply I REALLY NEEED!

I've a swf... we ca call it as A.

In A I've maked a level where I load others SWF whith Load Movie.. I call this second SWF as B.

In B there is a movie clip in the root timeline. it name is C.

In the root rimeline of B there is anothere mouvieclip called D.

Thees are the elements... where is the problem?
At the and of D animation I've to make a telltarget to control the movie clip C.
The problem is that, when D arrived at the and of the animation don't telltarget C... so the animation don't starts and sops there.
I don't know why.... How can I control C by D?!?!?!?

tellTarget ("/C") {
gotoAndPlay (2);
}

For example... this don't work.

tellTarget ("_root.C") {
gotoAndPlay (2);
}

and this don't work too...

Please I NEEED a FAST, VERY FAST REPLY

if you are putting this in the timeline of D then put

_root.C.gotoAndPlay(2)


it works, I tried it. If it doesn't work then make sure you have the correct instance names on the MOVIEclips

Tanks you ... but it don't work...

The action that you give me work in the A root timeline and in the A movie clip timeline but don't in the b root or clip timeline.
I don't know why you don't have this problem!
Even I've to make something like _level1.... etc?

If you think that the problem is in the istance name I tell you that it isn't, I've check it and it is all right.

try changing the _root. to _parent.

sorry about that, I didn't really read thru your original question, I didn't realize that C and D were nested in B. When they are nested you have to use _parent instead of _root.
It should work, this one worked for me when they were nested.
