TellTarget/With problem. Flash can't see object.

Hi,

I'm completely flummoxed by this one. I have a movie inside another movie that I am attempting to control with a button in the outer movie (I hope that makes sense!). I assumed that I could use tellTarget to send the inner movie a stop command but it doesn't seem to work. I have called the inner movie "balls" and used the following actionscript (in the stop button) to stop it:

on (release) {
	with (balls) {
		stop ();
	}
}

Am I doing something stupid here?

I'll snip out the relevant stuff and send it to you in a little while. I hope you can tell me where I've gone wrong.

hmmm...I can't seem to send the email to you. It keeps coming back, saying it's undeliverable. It might be too big.

Curious!
Just tested it myself and it seems to be workin' fine! And that mailbox is pratically empty! You mean to say the relevant stuff is over 2MBs?
Zip it or something!
