Flash 8: How can i control variables in a Loader component?

hi, i've got a Loader component on a swf called ';holder.swf';


i am loading an external.swf in this Loader.





i have a variable called isTest in ';holder.swf';.





is there any way for me to access the variable isTest from the externally loaded external.swf? thanks!Flash 8: How can i control variables in a Loader component?
I am not up to scratch with my Actionscripting but I will spare a thought anyway.





what happens if you pass on that variable when you call the new file - like:





loadMovie( ';external.swf?isTest=$value';, ...





dunno if it works, it's just a thought.
