Hi Steve

Try it this way -

Load your text file into the maintimeline as in say at frame 1.

When calling variables to a MC text box, do it like this:

/:varname

Ok. So I can get a text file to load if the movie that is calling it
is in the main timeLine. What I cannot do is have the following;
Have the mainTimeLine and in that a MC that in it's timeline calls a
textFile into itself. God I hope I am explaining this so that it
makes sense. No matter what it just won't load that damn text file if
it is a level deeper than the mainTimeLine. Anyone have any
suggestions?


Thanks
