Draggin Dropping of AVM1(ActionScript 1/2) dont work in AVM2(ActionScript 3/Flex)

I have a application developed in ActionScript 2 which has dragging/dropping activity. which works fine. I used following to test dropping

dropObject.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true) //if true, drop currently dragging object

Problem occurs when I put this SWF in my Flex application SWFLoader container. dragging dosen't work at all in this case.

any ideas guys?

I finally figured out why it was happening(or not happening!)

When we put AVM1 object in AVM2 container, AVM1 coordinate system goes on a toss. TO prevent it, put a dummy sprite on top-left corner in AVM1 and change all logic of drag-drop checking with respect to that object, and not with _root.

This is not the case with others AVM2 modules though. They work fine standalone and within another container.

no interoperability (such as calling methods or using parameters) between the AVM1Movie object and AVM2 objects is allowed.
