Hyperlinks that target another frame? Problems!

I am just starting to learn how to use Flash, so what I am doing is downloading .fla files from other sites and try to work out how they are put together, and how they work. I have come accross a really usefull one that I would like to use on my site, the author says its ok. But I can not get in contact with his to ask how something works, so I'm asking here! It might have been a little easier to understand if it was in English, but its in Spanish or something, but you lot might be able to make out what his code does.

I have attached the .fla file for it, what it is, is a menu system kinda thing, I have managed to work out how to change the colours etc... but when you click on the buttons when it has been exported as a movie and put on my site, the links open up in a new window, I want to get them to open in another frame of my site, and I can not work out how. Could someone have a look at it and tell me how this can be done? Thanks in advance.

Well all I wanted to do was to create a menu system in flash, I was lookin round a few sites, and this was exactly what I wanted to create, not knowing any flash at all, I just tried editing this one the best I could, I got the look of it like I want, its just trying to make the links open in a frame rather than a new window which I'm havin a problem with...

ok this is the information i needed.

as far as it looks like only the submenues refer to other pages right?

if so then all u need to do is:

open the fla
click on the orange button at the far left (don't hit the textfield)
as long as u see this

Code:
on(release){
	_root.spegni1();
	gotoAndStop(5);
    getURL(link,"_BLANK");
}


change _BLANK into the name of your frame.

done
