Hi Manisha,

I would not store the 5 desired movies in 5 fields, I have put them in
one called "playField". Replace that name with Your name. If you need 5
fields you would first have to combine them in another field. Use
something like member("playfield").text=member("your1").text & RETURN &
member("your2").text & . . .

here is some code for you:

1)
place a "PLAY" button with the following script:
on mouseUp
  buildPlaylist
end

2)
create a movie script with the following script

global gPlaylist, gPointer, myMIAW

on buildPlaylist
  lReference=["Hallo Welt":"movie1.dir", "My movie is my
castle":"movie2.dir","another movie of 50":"movie3.dir","In
Trouble":"movie4.dir","This is not America":"movie5.dir","Whole Lotta
Rosie":"movie6.dir"] -- this is a list of names and filenames of your movies
  gPlaylist=[]
  repeat with i=1 to the number of lines in member("playField").text  --
replace "playField" with the                                                           
                                                 -- name of your text member
    append(gPLaylist,getAprop(lReference,member("playField").text.line[i]))
  end repeat
  advanceFilm
end

on advanceFilm
  if NOT gPointer then
    gPointer=1
  else
    gPointer=gPointer+1
  end if
  if gPointer>gPlaylist.count then
    -- do whatever you want to da after your films have played
    exit
  end if
  film=gPlaylist[gPointer]
  if NOT objectP(myMIAW) then
    set myMIAW to window film
    --define rect and windowtype here
    open myMIAW
  else
    tell myMIAW to play movie film
  end if
end

3)
place the following script in the last frame of every movie which is
supposed to play in the MIAW

on exitFrame
  tell the stage to advanceFilm
end


It's not fully testes but it should work.

regards, Florian
