I have made a menu in flash with various buttons on it, and imported it into a director movie. I was wondering if I could 'within flash' tell each button to open up a different director movie using the actions panel, ie 'open movie - whatever.dir'. is this possible.
 
Thanks thats great, it still seems really complicated though, I suppose its just a matter of plugging away till it works.
 
Its really simple, for an action in a button in Flash, put this:

on (press)
get url(lingo:eek:pen window "X")
}

This is to open a MIAW called X

or
on (press)
get url(lingo:play movie "X")
}

To play the movie X
 
Actually it should look like this:
on (press) {
getURL(lingo: Director action;);
}
