Tom, take a look at this:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Menu</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#000000">
<!-- The TARGET="main" bit means that the page is loaded into the frame called "main". -->
<!-- The names of the frames are set in the frame.htm file -->
<br><br><br><OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/ shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=4,0,2,0" width="129" height="177"><PARAM name="movie" value="DataProbe.swf"><PARAM name="quality" value="high"><PARAM name="menu" value="true"><EMBED src="DataProbe.swf" quality="high" menu="true" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/ download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="129" height="177"></EMBED></OBJECT>
<P>
<font color="#ffffff">test text</font>
<A HREF="main.htm#top" TARGET="main"><PARAM name="movie" value="DataProbe.swf"></A>
you see that line in bold? try inserting that line into your file. notice that it appears after your flash object. the link that you've got coded there, isn't doing anything, becausing putting a <PARAM> tag inside of it doesn't in any way link it to your flash object. even putting the flash object inside of the link, wouldn't help you. if you want the links in your flash object to open in different frames, i'm pretty sure that's something you have to take care of in flash.
hope that helps, and good luck to you.
