You'll find the button on the right side, under Actions > loadvariables.
in the left panel it should look like this:
//load variables into level0 (the main timeline)
loadVariablesNum ("your_textfile.txt", 0);
//load variables into MC, instancename = mc_target
loadVariables ("your_textfile.txt", "mc_target");
You can write the action by hand, by clicking on the arrow at the top-right of the actions panel and switch to 'expert mode'
(CTRL+E). You can swithc back and forth between expert and normal mode (CTRL+N).
hth,
Muzak
