Need tips for this approach

Question

function loadComplete(e:Event):void {
removeChild(old_mc);
addChild( DisplayObject(LoaderInfo(e.target).content) );
//trace(e.currentTarget.content.x);
//trace(e.currentTarget.content.y);
//trace(e.currentTarget.content.width);
//trace(e.currentTarget.content.height);
//trace(stage.stageWidth);
//trace(stage.stageHeight);
//trace works alright, but its only good for once...
Having main.swf loading object.swf (so for so good).
now i need to learn an approach how to use this "e.currentTarget.content" (the object.swf that is loaded) for anything i want outside that loadComplete function...
it would be nice if i could name it and able to use it... (then i could use it to create other functions i want.... but i dont know how ><
can some1 teach me a good approach to solve my riddle?

Answer 1

You should be able to just declare a variable outside of the onComplete function and assign it the loaded object when the file loads...
var loadedSWF:MovieClip;
function loadComplete(e:Event):void {
     removeChild(old_mc);
     addChild( DisplayObject(LoaderInfo(e.target).content) );
     loadedSWF = MovieClip(e.currentTarget.content);
function doStuffToSWF(){
      loadedSWF.something....
