Hey Helen,

I'm trying to find a way to find out what the height of the loaded movie

is... it knows... if you load a 50x50 movie into a 100x100 movie clip, the

little movie stays little (it doesn't actually change height). I think I did

need another frame though. You have to load the movie on one frame and then

get the property on another... I think.


Still trying :) Thanks!!

Laura
