Exclamation PLEASE help with target path problem

Somebody please help with this problem...

I have 3 swf files: index.swf , movie1.swf, and movie2.swf using the loadMovie function I am loading movie2.swf into movie1.swf which will play inside of index.swf (index.swf calls and plays movie1.swf in a mc which calls and plays in aother mc movie2.swf)

loadMovie("cam/movie2.swf","_root.desktopmc");

as you can see movie2.swf resides wihtin a folder titled cam. When I play movie1.swf the movie plays fine with movie2 loading into a movieclip titled desktopmc (movie2.swf is called to play on scene 2)

Now I am trying to load movie1.swf into index.swf using the following code

loadMovie("movie1.swf","_root.placeholdermc");

My problem is when index.swf call movie1.swf scene 1 of movie1 plays with no problem however movie2.swf which is being called inside movie1.swf will not play. I can see text pop up but the swf will not load. I know I have the loadMovie code wrong in movie1.swf but I have no idea how it is suppose to be set up will somebody PLEASE HELP!
Thanks in advance

Found the fix

Hats off to Tann San.

I was surfing through other posts and found an answer to another post.

I tested it and it worked

using the "this" command:
this.loadMovie() instead of just loadMovie() fixed the problem.

Thanks to everyone that knows more than I do..

Randy
