I'm loading dynamic images into a runtime MC, assigning a simple onEnterFrame function to make it scroll by, and am amazed that it won't work. This should be an exceedingly simple thing to accomplish, but I'm guessing that there's some issue with loading an external image/movie or maybe the fact that it's all at runtime... Anyway, just can't figure out why this won't work. Any thoughts, fixes or statements of the obvious (I think I have a slow brain-bleed at this point in this project) would be most appreciated...

Ciao,

use the timeline's onEnterframe's
do either
_root.onEnterFrame or this.onEnterFrame

Thanks, guys. Okay, that makes sense that it's being overwritten, but it still seems that something else is going on. As a test, I removed my onEnterFrame function and put the action in a button's onPress, and the movement still didn't work. Here's my current loading function. Is there a better way of doing this (I guess that's an obvious "yes" :te:)?

_x = 223 * (_root.prodCount - 1);
}else{

_x -= 1;
}
};
}
}
If you're using that clip to load the external content you're overwriting the onEnterFrame loop as soon as you do. As Celestial noted, put the onEnterFrame event somewhere that it isn't going to get loaded over.
