Targetting a container in another layer

[ueberbill]

What's the code to target a container within another layer?
Say my main movie loads another movie into level1. The level1 movie has a container and loads yet another movie into it (let's call it container1). The movie in container1 contains a variable that the main movie in layer0 wants to use. How do I get to it?
Thanks,
Bill

This is the format calling from _level0:

_level1/Container1:variable


First the level, then the movieclip that contains the variable and finally : and the variable.

Good luck.
