Don, Okay, if I understand you correctly, you could insert a keyframe at the end of each animation which will allow you to place some code: stop(); setTimeout(goOn,1000);// that's a one second delay This will call the goOn function which in turn will direct the playhead to each animation

With non-Air players, you can use a Socket to connect to a server. But you can't create a server itself; i.e. you can't write code to bind to a given port and listen for connections. So, in that scenario you cannot connect both swfs directly (you have to use a socket server). Appartently with Air
