Thanks Carl! This is immensely helpful and get's me going on the right path.

Ok, I am pretty new to this flash / actionscript so please help me get on track... I am trying to do the following: FirstSwf -- contains a timelinemax that animates a text from left to right SecondSwf -- contains a X number of photos that fade in and fade out with Y animation duration (number of images is dynamically parsed via XML configuration) ThirdSwf -- contains a timeline that animates a text from bottom to top (sort of like credits screen) Main.swf -- This is where I am stuck. I want to load the three SWF's into a master timeline inside main.swf and than sequentially play them one by one. I am able to load these swf's using LoaderMax but I can't seem to figure out two things: 1. How do I play them in sequence? 2. How do I control the sub timelines (within these external swf's) via the master timeline? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks
