Submenus Referencing Frames in a Separate Movie

I am creating a new Flash project and am having trouble getting my submenu
links to work correctly. They correctly load the other movie clip (energy.swf),
however I cannot get them to go to and play the correct frame of the energy
movie. I've listed the actions below:

on (press) {
if (_root.main_mc == Number (_root.main_mc);
} else {
_root.main_mc.loadMovie ("energy.swf");
}

on (release) {
_root.energy.swf.gotoAndPlay ("lightingtext");
}

Can any one help? PLEASE.

if i understand you are loading a swf into another swf using the target
method...well if i am right then your code is wrong.
lets say then instance name name of the movieclip where your swf loads is
loader.
then use this code
on(release) {
_root.loader.gotoAndPlay("lightingtext");
}
