Load .swf file with External text in Another Flash document

Hi,

I have prepared a writings.swf with external text. I want to load this writings.swf file into the main Flash document. However, while the writings.swf could appear in the document, the external text could not be seen. Why?

Also I tried to load the writings.swf file using the Loader component. Nothing appeared except the border framing the loader component. Why?

How do I format the external text on notepad to make it look good in my writings.swf file whereby the external text is defined as scrollable dynamic text?

Load it into a dynamic text object, obviously, but then enable that object for html text, once this is done you can modify the contents of your external text file allowing you to use html tags such as <i>itallic text</i> when it is loaded into the mc.

Also I recently found that dynamic text does not work terribly well beneath a lot of masks, or any for that matter, no doubt flash 8 quirk, so you might want to check that out also.
