FLASH: Newbie F4 Target Question

[Jordan Long]

Hi Everyone,


I'm creating a product catalog in Flash and need my movie to open a .swf

file containing the company's products. The clip is loaded into a

transparent movie clip and appears on top of my main movie. 


So far so good. But I need to be able to jump to different locations in the

second movie depending on what button the user clicks on. 


A typical button (for a product called 178) is as follows: 

On (Release)

      Set Variable: "MovieClip" = "products/products.swf"

      Set Variable: "StartLabel" = "178"	

      Go to and Play ("SBC Clip")

End On


This jumps to a location (SBC Clip) that calls up the products.swf movie.

The code for this frame is:

Load Movie (MovieClip, "/ClipHolder")

Begin Tell Target ("/ClipHolder")

      Go to and Play ("StartLabel")

End Tell Target


Now, I thought this should jump my movie designated ClipHolder to the label

178. But it doesn't. Rather it always starts at the first frame of the

movie.


Am I missing something obvious? In any case, any suggestions would be

welcomed. 


Jordan
