Look for fscommand in the help files.

Or, if you are targeting Flash 4 only, you can send a message to the swf as 
a url parameter: <embed src="movie.swf?gotoframe=8">
then in your movie, tell the timeline to goto gotoframe defined as an 
expression. If you are targeting a mc like this, you have to reference the 
variable from the root of the movie, like

tell target('"yourMC")
         goto and stop "yourMC" & /:gotoframe
