Identifying naming conflicts when consolidating .flas -

Question

F8as2
Greetings all,
Background:
Over the past years I have created many different .fla's of aircraft panels( ie. hydraulic panel, electrical panel, pressurization panel, etc.)  Each .fla has only one panel in it.  Each panel is a movieclip and made up of movieclips, graphics, etc.  It has it's own code built in and the idea was to be able to copy the panel from the original .fla to a new .fla, that contained other panels, and together would become part of a training program for the company. No I wasn't smart enough to uniquely name each asset(switch, guage, light, etc.). I did avoid the default names like symbol1, symbol2, etc.
Now I need to take each of the panels from the individual .fla's and put them into one larger .fla to act as a single library for all the panels.  This single .fla will become the master Library that I will link all future .fla's to.  As you would guess I get the "One or more library items already exist in the document:" message when I try to copy and paste a panel(movieclip) into the new .fla.
Question:
Is there an easy way to identify specifically which items are in conflict  without having to do a direct comparison between each of the libraries???
Thanks for the help,
Logeye

Answer 1

Why don't you use a MovieClipLoader?  Then you could load all of your panels into your main project.  This would require you to have multiple FLA's, this could possibly be less work & make your project more modular.
this.createEmptyMovieClip("mcPanelWindow",this.getNextHighestDepth());
var CurrentWindowListener:Object = new Object();
CurrentWindowListener.onLoadComplete = function(target_mc:MovieClip){
     //fully loaded (not started)
     //move the panel movieclip in this frame
CurrentWindowListener.onLoadInit = function(){
    //action taken when the FLA starts
var CurrWindow_mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
CurrWindow_mcl.addListener(CurrentWindowListener);
CurrWindow_mcl.loadClip( "panel.swf", mcPanelWindow);
