Ok guys, Im a Flash newbie, so be explicit in your explanations.
I've designed a site that contains a main movie with only the menu & interface.
Each menu item loads 3 movies onto a specific level(1,2,&3) using loadMovieNum.

1. How can I use a preloader that checks to see if all 3 movies are loaded?
2. If not possible, how can I use a preloader to check 1 loaded movie?
3. Would it be contained in the main movie.?

Thanks ,

Basically you need a way to tell the loader movie all the external movies
are ready. You can have actionscript in the external movies flip flag
variables in the main movie for Flash 6 players back

Try this examples:

For Flash 7 player the above works or you can try MovieClipLoader class:
The example in the Flash help under loadClip works with a cut and paste on
frame 1 of a new movie or here is another example:
