sure... it is as simple as this: // gets the loaded SWF var theContent:MovieClip = bulkLoader.getMovieClip(path);
// creates a movieclip that will hold the loaded content var movieHolder:MovieClip = new MovieClip; // add the content to the movieHolder clip movieHolder.addChild(theContent); // down the line we tell "the content" to play MovieClip(theContent).gotoAndPlay(2); now "theContent" has to fire a method that will be used by the main shell that holds the movieHolder and theContent....
