first thing I would try is to check if the path is valid:
put myPath&nextFileName
then you would easily see in the message window, that there is a path
seperator missing...
and you can change your script to something like:
member("forImport").fileName = myPath&"\"&nextFileNam
(despite the fact, that it won't work x-platform like that, since the
path seperator on mac is ":", but as mypath isn't x-platform...)
one more thing:
the startmovie event isn't a good place for that kind of task. try to avoid it.
better would be to have a frame, with a 'loading images...' message
(or even blank) which does the import after the movie setup is done
(preparemovie, prepareframe 1 , beginsprite in frame 1 and
startmovie)and do the task on its exitframe event -- as far as it is
possible.
don't get me wrong, it DOES work on startmovie, since the castlib
header info and the score info, is already loaded into RAM, the only
thing what I want to say is: TRY to avoid it, since it is more stable
to do it after the movie setup is finished. the demanding tasks
shouldn't get executed at startmovie IMHO
