Ensure variable from .asp loaded before used by Flash.

Hello again

I am loading variables into Flash from an .asp file using:

loadVariablesNum ("http://blah.com/layout/info.asp", 0);

One of these variables is called picnumberdefault

I am trying to load the jpg into a clip called the picture by using the following:

_root.thepicture.loadMovie ("http://blah.com/pics/" + picnumberdefault + "pix.jpg");

Unfortunately this gets called BEFORE
loadVariablesNum ("http://blah.com/layout/info.asp", 0);
has had a chance to load the variable picnumberdefault
so the picture does not get loaded.

Is there any way to ensure that the variable picnumberdefault is loaded from the database BEFORE

_root.thepicture.loadMovie ("http://blah.com/pics/" + picnumberdefault + "pix.jpg");

is called?


PHEW! Thanx.
