    Nevermind.....figured it out.

    Symbols are document-relative and must be exported in order to access them

    Default Re: Symbols......

    They are stored seperately by file. Just like in Flash. If you save a
    symbol for one file it will not automatically be avaialbe for the other
    - unless you import it or paste it or otherwise let it be part of a new
    document.
