Henri,
I'd love to tell you how to fix this, but can't. I had the same
problem: when I added a 2-frame "wait for variables to load before
proceeding" section to my movie, it never proceeded. I went over and
over Branden's example at flashlite.net and tried to set it up exactly
the same, but couldn't get it to advance out of the loop. When I took
out the waiting loop and put in a Goto right after the load variables
statement, it worked fine, and the variables were loaded (I know because
they displayed just fine). I'd like to hear from Branden or someone
else that has suggestions for the wait loop though. (When is it
necessary? Any ideas why we can't get it to work?)

TIA,
Helen
