I'm pretty new to flash.

Right now I'm using an empty container to import my navigation into and it works fine: loader_mc.loadMovie("flash/navigation.swf");

Is there anyway to get the movie to start on a given frame once it's been imported? Say, I wanted the navigation to open on the "saddles" frame?

Thanks in advance.
 
It would open on "saddles" or five other categories, so yes, only in some specific cases.

The movie is a subnavigation that plays in five different .swf files. So when the "saddles" button is click the sub navigation is (would be) loaded into the container and played on the "saddles" frame. If the "baskets" button was presed, the same .swf movie would load but on the "baskets" frame.
 
So you're in fact loading an external .swf in another main movie, but wanting it to go to a specific frame, according to which button was pressed in the main movie?

If so, mail me a request (address if you hit my handle above...), and I mail you example .flas.
