Problem:
I have a swf loading into a Scroll Pane Component. I want to control the
playhead in that swf. I am have a hard time finding the path to the particular
swf playhead that is being loaded into the Scroll Pane Component.

What I want to do is:
Control the playhead for the swf that is being loaded

thanks

In the IDE's player, under DEBUG, you have 'List Variables' and 'List Objects'.
Check there where is the scrollpane and what's in there.

HTH,

yup it was there. Thanks for the advice. Never thought about looking in the
debug. Guess I better start there if I have problems finding anything.

The component was being loaded into a tempLoad area: Here was the debug line
Movie Clip: Frame=1 Target="_level0.myScrollPane.loadTemp.mc_plans.instance31"
the instance was the swf being loaded, but the path to the part I
wanted was
_root.myScrollPane.loadTemp.mc_plans
thanks again
