loadmovie into a fla-cs3 (as2)

I've been trying to load a simple .swf (home.swf) and have it play automatically on my existing fla project (as2). These are the steps I have taken..

1) create MC, named "holder" 2) within first frame of MC, entered in.. loadMovie("home.swf","holder");

Nothing is showing, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. If you can help, I can send you the files I'm workin开发者_Python百科g with. Am really stuck.. thanks.

This works for CS3 (doc is here: http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/main/00001934.html#wp386574)

holder.loadMovie("home.swf");

is the path to the child swf correct?

in your example it would need to be in the same directory as your home.swf file, have you confirmed this (perhaps by running it from outside the Flash IDE)?
