Please Help ME!!!

I am very new to Flash MX so please bear with me. I am trying to mimic a powerPoint presentation with Flash MX.

I have 19 different slides and have created 19 small flash files, one for each slide. I am using alpha transperency to fade text and images in and out. I have also used the load feature to have another movie file load and play when the last one is finished.

It works fine locally on my machine but when I upload it to the server to be viewed by all I get pauses in between movie files.

I need this to be a auto run smooth flowing presentation and am about to give up. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Not even sure if this was the best way to do this.

you need to preload the swf files either before your presentation begins - take longer to get started but then smooth once you get going - but which means you might as well put them all in the one swf - or preload them as they are being loaded so that little pause displays a message and a load bar......IMO for a presentation I think you should load it all beforehand so there's no waiting. (Try www.actionscript.org for a tutorial on building a preloader if you want one)
