Flash8 swfs are sandboxed and only localConnection will communicate between them.
Flash9 swfs are available to as3. When you embed them, they get buried in a MovieClipLoader. You can still get at it.

Hi All, Is it at all possible to access code within a flash-generated SWF? I have an animated character that I want to color on the fly, and use external ActionScript 3.0 class linkages to do this. However, when I load the swf into flex by embedding the symbol, all of the types revert to MovieClip and I cannot call any of the methods. This is frustrating. Is there any way around this, or must all code be done only after the files are loaded into flex?
