You should get an applicationComplete when the app's ready. It is available earlier than that, but I don't think there's a good event for it. You could check on enterFrame events.

In a handler on the complete event of a SWFLoader, I set an instance variable(typed as SystemManager) to myLoader.content. _smAppLoaded = SystemManager(myLoader.content); When can I access the .application property?: Alert.show(_smAppLoaded.application["lblOne"].text); If I try it in the event handler, I get a null reference. The same if I try it in a callLater() But if I try it after a setInterval or timer of 5000 ms, I get a valid reference. And from a button in the UI, it is valid. Is there a good way to know if it is ready? Or should I just use a timer loop? Tracy
