Sorry to sound so confusing. OHGWelcome was a .swf so, putting the clip in
the same frame number as the action calling it worked. Thank you.

No wonder it doesn't work. Is OHGwelcome a movie clip or a swf? It
looks like it is a movie clip. If you are calling a movie clip in
frame one which does not exist until frame 20 then it will not work.
The movie clip must reside in the same frame number as the action
calling it. It is hard to tell you what is wrong when your
information is confusing. If OHGwelcome is a swf then you need to use
load movie. You would not place it on the stage.
