Loading a New Movie and Going to a Specific Frame

[ote]

I'm sure it's easy, but I am relatively new.

I have 2 movies. The first movie launches the second movie at a specific
point. I need to place a button in the second movie that will load the
first movie and then play starting at a specific frame in that movie (namely
the one I left off at). I'd think it would be easy, but I'm having a
terrible time figuring it out. I've been trying loadMovie and passing
variable with Get, but I must be doing something wrong with my if statement
in the movie.

Can someone please give advice.

Please respond to vva...@uillinois.edu

Thank you very much.

lets say you load the movie into a movie clip called "foo". Once the
movie clip has loaded, you can tell it to go to a specific frame like
so:

foo.gotoAndStop(3);

or using a label

foo.gotoAndStop("labelName");

hope that helps...

Thanks Mike, but where do you tell it to go to a specific frame? Is this in
the original movie? Admittedly, I think I'm a little confused about how
Flash works with multiple movies.
