Martin, you are my hero.
uiResources.attachMovie(...) worked like a charm, and it'll let me
dynamically change which brand.swf I use (as opposed to Links which
wouldn't).
Thanks!

That's what I was afraid of. I want to avoid doing that, as the
brand.swf it meant just to be an external library which can be swapped
around, though I guess I could have my main.swf build the UI inside
the uiResources MC. Kind of ugly though.
I'm guessing I could do it with links, but from what I've seen online
the link depends on a URL to the brand.swf, which doesn't really work
since I want to be able to use different brand.swfs and pick them at
runtime (probably as a parameter to the movie). Is there a way to use
links without having a fixed URL for the linked SWF?
