Ok, I think I understand now. Map1.swf was loaded into map2.swf using 

LoadMovie. When you did that, you must have set a level for map1.swf (for 

example, level=1) or targeted it to load into a movie clip location in 

map2.swf. I'll pretend you loaded it into level1.


You have a movie clip inside map1.swf. Let's pretend that the instance name 

for that movie clip is "nestedclip," and it has a frame labeled "go here," 

which is where you want it to go at the right time. You would use 

TellTarget in either a button or frame action to make it happen. The action 

looks like this:


TellTarget (target: _level1/nestedclip)

      Go To and Stop (frame: go here)

End TellTarget


If this is from a button, you'd end up with "On (Release)" and "End (On)" 

surrounding the above action.
