Please someone help me! I can't call movies with checkboxes

Here is a link to the sample file.

This is what I would like to do with it. When I check the boxes I would like the swfs to play one after another in the order that I checked them. They programming is on a submit button at the moment and this is what it looks like. I thought perhaps I woul
d use "then" to tell it to go to the next one instead of "else" but that dosn't seem to work. Does anyone know how to do this. I am out of ideas and very frustrated. I hope someone can help!
Here is the actionscript in the submit button. Thankyou!

on (release) {
_root.gotoAndPlay("move");
if (base.checked)
loadMovie("base.swf", this._parent.rect);
else
if (cost.checked)
loadMovie("costs.swf", this._parent.rect);
else
if (invoice.checked)
loadMovie("invoice.swf", this._parent.rect);
else
if (inventory.checked)
loadMovie("inventory.swf", this._parent.rect);
else
if (schedule.checked)
loadMovie("scheduledwork.swf", this._parent.rect);
else
if (punch.checked)
loadMovie("scheduledwpunch.swf", this._parent.rect);
else
if (time.checked)
loadMovie("timecard.swf", this._parent.rect);
}

For starters, you have a number of syntax errors.

if (base.checked)
loadMovie("base.swf", this._parent.rect);

is missing some brackets. Should look more like

if (base.checked){
loadMovie("base.swf", this._parent.rect);
}
