Re: FLASH: preloading seperate .swfs

[Maragakis Michalis 9169]

I think you don't even have to have a stop command because you could load

them and then have tell target that refers to them saying they should go

to frame 1 and stop (which is practically the same as a result but you

won't have to edit 10 movies!!!). And later when you want it to, you can

tell it to go to frame 2 and play.
