You need an FS Command with a command of StartClock to start the clock.

Put this in your Movie at the point you want the clock to run (or

shortly before).


The FS Command is captured and will run the function Runclock() which

then 

gets the time and sends a new update of that time to the Flash Movie 10

times a second.


function clock_DoFSCommand(cmd, arg)  

{

    if (cmd=="StartClock") {Runclock();}

    if (cmd=="StopClock")  {Stopclock();}

}
