Flash CS4, AS2

I have made an interactive tour. It can be seen here:

http://www.92YTribeca.org/Tour click on the bottom image

Each of the 4 sections are external swf and loaded on level 1. I want a button on one swf (floorplan) to load another swf (facility rentals) AND pinpoint a specific frame on the swf's timeline.

I have tried many different ways, all end up loading the swf at the first frame and ignore the rest of the code talking about the timeline. I know I could split this swf up into more external swfs and get the result I want, but I would rather use code if I can.

Is what I want to do possible? If so, how do I write the code?

Thanks!

I've been looking for a solution to this for years, but nothing is conclusively documented. There are many Shoutcast Flash players out there (e.g. radio.de) so I know it's possible.
