scripts in loaded swf mc don't work

[kur]

I have a scrolling movieclip which works fine by itself.
When this is loaded into another timeline as a .swf it doesn't work.
any suggestions?

The movieclip (or swf) itself consists of the pic clip and the position clip which has four frames with the following script:


startDrag ("", true);
mouseposition = getProperty("_level0/position", _y);
if (Number(mouseposition)>=150 and Number(mouseposition)<=300) {
gotoAndPlay (3);
}
____________

gotoAndPlay (1);

______________
mouseposition = getProperty(&quot;_level0/position&quot;, _y);
if (Number(mouseposition)<150 or Number(mouseposition)>300) {
gotoAndPlay (1);
}
_______________

mouseposition = getProperty(&quot;_level0/position&quot;, _x);
picposition = getProperty(&quot;_level0/pic&quot;, _x);
if (Number(mouseposition)>=300 and Number(picposition)>Number(-2000)) {
setProperty (&quot;_level0/pic&quot;, _x, picposition-(0.01*(mouseposition-10)));
}
if (Number(mouseposition)<300 and Number(picposition)<10) {
setProperty (&quot;_level0/pic&quot;, _x, Number(picposition)+Number((0.01*(300-mouseposition))));
}
coords = mouseposition;
gotoAndPlay (3);

Do you have any stop actions that have escaped you? I get this sometimes, the way I get around it is to have a mymc.play (); action on the time line that holds the mc. Place the action on the frame where you want your mc to start. funkymonk B-)

thanks for that
could have been a quick fix
unfortunately no escaped stop actions and the mymcplay suggestion doesn't seem to work.
I think it's to do with the pathnames.
