FLASH: Unloading Movie from level - - multiple instances of same movie!

[Dino Giacomazzi]

Hey Yall,


I have a movie with a button that loads mulitple instances of the same SWF

into different levels.  Im having a bit of trouble unloading the movies

indivitually. I have a setup like this:


Main Movie -  Frame Action - Frame 1


Set Variable: "ln" = 0

Set Variable: "bn" = 0


"ln" is the Level Number

"bn" is for the box number (indivitual instance of the abc.swf)



Main Movie - Button


On (Release)

      Load Movie ("abc.swf", (ln) + 1)

      Set Variable: "ln" = (ln) + 1

      Set Variable: "bn" = (bn) + 1

End On


This part works great, each time i click the button, it loads another

instance of the swf into a higher level.  i am able to pass text variable to

each of the indivitual levels and am really happy about that.


The problem is in the abc.swf i have a button, that when clicked, is

supposed to uload that particular instance of the movie.


abc.swf - frame action - frame 1


Set Variable: "abn" = _level0:bn

Set Variable: "abn1" = int (abn)


Im just guessing here, but what i am trying to do is convert the value of

abn which is the value of bn from the main movie to a fixed number.  then I

use abn1 in the button to calculate what level the movie lives at.


Then I try


On (Release)

      Unload Movie ((abn1))

End On


with the level property set to expression.. no matter what i seem to do,

when I click the button, it unloads everything from the screen as if its

saying unload level 0.


I think im in way over my head and am pretty confused at this point.  Any

help would be appreciated.


Ill post the FLA's of the two movies at :
