I ended up getting this to work. Initially, I was waiting for the "onLoadComplete" event before trying to interact with a loaded movie via a moviecliploader in the Flash 8 proxy file. I changed it so that it waits for the "onLoadInit" event, which was happening after the "onLoadComplete" event, at least when I tested it locally. So, if I wait for the "onLoadInit" event via the moviecliploader, and then call functions, I'm good.

Sorry for the delay on this. I'm using LocalConnection to talk to proxy, which loads Flash 8 movie and talks to it using Standard AS2. I also send message from the proxy back to the main app using LocalConnection. The proxy is an adapted version of Jesse Warden's: http://jessewarden.com/2007/06/flex-controlling-flash.html Thanks Jesse!

So you’re using LocalConnection to speak from your main app to the proxy, or from the proxy to the Flash 8 movie? Gk.

I'm working with LocalConnection now and having some issues. I'm trying to load and control some Flash 8 movies with some success. I'm first loading in a proxy Flash 8 file, and then loading the movies into there. I'm calling functions in the proxy file which basically tell the loaded movies to go to certain frames, etc. It seems to work most of the time but every now and again I get weird "undefined" traces in the Flex IDE. I have a lot more testing to do but I'm not sure how the Flash 9 debugger tries to debug AS2 in a Flash 8 file. Thanks, Brandon
