not sure what you mean but it might be this
Insert>new symbol>movie clip
go back to main timeline and from the library drag a copy of the empty clip onto the stage where you want the external movie to play
through properties give it an instance name (clip, say)
then add to frame actions
loadMovie("some.swf",clip)

I'll give that a try.
I'm creating this project for a CD and not for web. I have to Flash movies one has my menus and info and the other is basically a video frame that plays a video. I want to click a button on the index movie and load the next movie with the video...possibly in a pop-up. I could put the video on the index movie, but I would have to resize the video and I believe that would compromise it's quality.
Any suggestions?
