I'm working on my first Flash project.&nbsp;&nbsp;I need a way for my flash animation to pause early and preload the rest of the frames for the movie.&nbsp;&nbsp;I want to do this so that the animation and music flows effortlessly.&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm using the following code but it doesn't seem to work well:<br><br>If Frame is Loaded (84)<br>Go to and play (3)<br>End Frame Loaded<br><br>84 is the last frame of my movie.&nbsp;&nbsp;The entire movie is 200k and a large section of my viewers will be in rural areas with slow connections.&nbsp;&nbsp;Is there a better way to do this? or am I doing it wrong the way I have it?
 
I have got a sample on my webpage that you can download, it also has a progress bar to show how much has been loaded (the flash is fairly small, so if you have a fast connection you won't see the progress bar)<br><br>you can find my flash page at <A HREF=" TARGET="_new"> ... to get the source for the Intro just click <b>yes</b> after <b>source available</b><br><br>hope this helps, if it does please sign my guestbook
