There is no interoperability between AS3 and AS2 apps that means you can't control or invoke anything in loaded SWF8 ( or less) from a SWF9 or more..
There are workarounds which use LocalConnection or ExternalInterface to achieve that. Infact, there are some projects around this problem. http://www.flashextensions.com/blog/2006/12/11/swfadapter-%E2%80%93-proxy-to-communicating-to-flash-8-swfs-from-flash-9/ -abdul On 5/3/07, Manish Jethani <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Anyway of > stopping/pausing the flash when I switch Views? You can either unload it by setting the source to "" (or null). But I found that that doesn't stop the movie playing. So try calling stop() on the content. loader.content.stop(); I'm assuming the content will be a MovieClip, etc. Didn't work for me with an old Flash 7 SWF.
