James,

You seem to have re-posted the same question under two different subjects.

I sent you an easier and faster answer yesterday, but you might have missed
it, so here it is again.

If I understand you correctly this is how:

On (Release)
Begin Tell Target ("_level0")
Go to and Play ("Scene/2")
End Tell Target
End On

Your "Main movie" is loaded into _level0 by default.

If you want to target an MC in the main movie you would do as follows:

Begin Tell Target ("_level0:YOUR_MC") // (NOTE ! the ":" )
Go to and Play ("YOUR_MC_Scene")
End Tell Target

Once you understand Flash's Levels and MC's you're into a wonderfully
interesting world !!

Regards,

Mats
