Are you trying to use a frame number (that is frame number 41) in a movie

that uses scenes, rather than a label? when the movie is output to an swf,

the timeline all becomes one so the frame numbers aren't the same. might

also be a problem with targeting the scene in the 'if loaded'. you can copy

the script out, it's just a little tricky. open the actionscript window,

click on a line below the first, click on the first again, scroll down to

the button and shift-click on the last line, hit control-c, and then use

control-v to paste it into your email program. Send the part that adds the

second preloader, since it worked before that :)
