Wow this jsfl is a life saver! Can't believe I had never heard about it before in all the years I have been using Flash.
Thank you Muzak for taking the time to write the code out for me. It works a dream!

You should be able to figure that out from the jsfl docs :) regards, Muzak ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Steven" <[email protected]> To: "'Flash Coders List'" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, April 08, 2009 8:30 AM Subject: [Flashcoders] Dragging loads of sound files from library into amovie clip > Related to my previous post, I now need to drag about 300 audio files from > the library into a movie clip. > > Essentially this is to ensure they are preloaded in my game.
