problem with loadMovie / slideshow

[Loco-Evil-Dabdoub]

What I want to do is to make a code that can load a different JPG (with a name such as DSC01234), automatically each time the first frame runs, and unloading the current JPG in the final frame. I can´t understand why my code doesn´t work, but I´m sure there must be a way to make ir do what its supossed to do...

------frame1----

var myPic:String = "";
var myCounter:Number = 0;
for (myCounter = 2280; myCounter < 2312; myCounter ++){
//trace(myPic);
myPic = ("DSC0" + myCounter + ".jpg");
loadMovie(myPic, myPicZone.fotoJPG_mc);
}

-----animation of myPicZone------
-----final Frame, with unloadMovie action (that also doesn´t work properly), so i don´t use it for now. Also need help here (i know, i suck)----

What this code actually do is just loading the first picture, and when the code ends it stops the whole thing, so I left the unloadMovie as a comment, but still, when the animation restarts, it doesn´t change to the next picture, so Im stuck...

Any suggestions in how I need to work on this, because Im not a programmer (i read books, but Im just begginig), and I need to do this kind of "slide Show" for saturday, because I don´t have time to work "manually" to make a video in some other software...

Thanks.

Thing is, you're loading all the jpg's in the same movieclip, so you'll always see the same one, whilst all the others are under it.

movies into target: Flash MX

root.createEmptyMovieClip("container",1);
container.loadMovie("photo.jpg");
container._x = container._y = 50 ;

_root.onMouseDown = function () {
startDrag ("container",false) ;
}
_root.onMouseUp = function () {
stopDrag () ;
}

next time do your own research mongrol

Thank to everyone, but none of you understood... I want to make an animation that runs in loop, and that each time it begins it loads a different picture (not necessaryly random) and unloads it when it ends, to begin the cycle. Someone told me my mistake was using a "for" loop, so currently I´m experimenting with the "while" loop... so, I still need help...
