This only works when running the swf file from the browser or as a

projector.

It does not work from test movie.

They both work for me and examples of both are likely in my posted

ActionScript tutorials. Copy the actions from Flash and post here if you

can't get them working and we should be able to get you going in the

right direction.


Note, actions are limited to 200,000 player actions in a frame and this

limits Loop while use.
