tha damn loadmovie! Why? why?

Why doesn't anything seem to work?

Look guys, I've got this small picture which i want to load on stage from another movie clip. I want to LOAD IT because this will eventually be done for about 30 of them.

So, i created a rectangle at the exact dimensions of the little picture. Made it into a symbol.
Now i want it:

onClipEvent (load) {
loadMovie("pica1.jpg", ?what goes here? );
}

so that the orginal movieclip disappears and infront of it my little picture appears (at the exact place where the movieclip was)

A second question
If this is done for about 30 movieclips, each loading a different little pcture, can they be made into one large movie clip so that a scrollpane can scroll them from the first to the last?

1. When you load something into a movieclip the external file "bocomes" the movieclip. Anything that was in it before will go way ( deleted). The size of the movieclip (mc) is not important as it will get the size of the loaded image.

onClipEvent (load) {
this.loadMovie("pica1.jpg" );
}

2. Yes. Just put them inside that movieclip.

thnx for your interest man but this ****ty simple thing just won't work.

Here have a look for yourself. It's so simple i just can't understand why it doesn't load it! The original movieclip just disappears! I placed the pic that i'm referring to in the library so you can use the one i'm using if you want.

The movieclip does not disapear, anything in it is erased when loading a external file into it, see my earlier post.

But it does not want to load the jpg for me either, but thats because of the onLoad action. When loading from a frame or button it works like its supposed to. I thought jpg's could be loded from absoluteley anywhere but I seem to be wrong.
