Usually what I do is, create a new movie clip symbol in your main movie.

Then match the amount of layers as the movie you want to "embed" in the new

movie clip.  Open up the .fla you want to embed and copy all the frames on

all the layers. Then go back to the new movie clip symbol and paste the

frames you just copied.


After all that, go back to your main movie and you should be able to drag

and "embed" it.  The nice thing about doing this, is that you have a fully

functional flash movie that you can scale, tween, etc, etc.
