Hi Ian... when I did stuff like that in D6/6.5 I had to go to a different frame to process the evalScript. Instead of doing all of the calls on a single frame I would make the externalEvent call and go to the next frame and loop there until I got the return from the evalScript. When I received the data I would then parse it and do anything else that needed to be done then go back to my original frame in the movie to get ready for the next call.
It's been a while since I have looked at that code ( > 3 years), hopefully that helps you a bit.
