Or even Simpler,
Add a scene to your FLA before the main scene and put the preload script
there ... no need for loadmovie :)

OR,
You can uncheck the export in first frame checkbox on the items in the
library with linkage. When you do this you can place those items on the
stage, like frame 2, and run your preload code on frame 1.
Alain's way is simpler, but knowing the export in first frame trick comes in
handy
I don't think that works - Export in frame 1 means export at the
very beginning of the movie.
Scenes are just logical divisions of the timeline for design purposes
- AFAIK they're not preserved in the SWF itself as anything other than
frame labels.

That would work, but in my case, I've inherited a project that has upwards
of a hundred symbols in the library, some used and some not. And a mess of
symbols placed on the stage. I can create a wrapper SWF
A simple fix - create a wrapper Flash movie, and load the bulky movie
in as a child. As long as it doesn't use _root all the time, it should
work fine. (And even if it does, you could use _lockroot to fix that).
