I have 2 .swf files on an html page.

One .swf(1) is a menu with buttons. I'd like those buttons to control the other .swf(2) to gotoandplay labeled frames.

I tried using MC.gotoandplay("frame1") but I that's not working...I think b/c .swf(2) isn't a MovieClip.

Can I call a frame with GetURL?

Any suggestions?

thanks.
 
I suggest you use the loadmovie command to load the movies after each button is clicked. In this way you should have total control over what should be played when the user presses a button.

hope this helps,
