load movie

I have a movie ''Home1'' that has a preloader attached to it, the second movie ''animation1'' does not play until partway through the first movies animation. I want ''animation1'' to load in the first frame of ''Home1'' so that the pre-loader recognizes it and loads it in frame1, but does not play until it reches its time part way through ''Home1'' (I am trying to avoid putting pre-oaders on each animation)

unless the preloader is setup to utilize the load-progress of a loading swf, that's not going to work.

you usually should add a preloader to your main swf or make a stand-alone preloader that will be your main (ie, first-loaded) swf and which will load your other swfs.
