How to make external text file load in specific movie clip?

Hi
I've been trying for a long time with examples found from websites which I googled, but am unable to dynamically make the texts in an external file load in my flash movie clip. In fact, the text to display was usually added manually, but I want to make it dynamic so as to make it easier for changes (its acting as a promo banner)

In the attached file, the default text box to display the promos is found in the mcPromo movieclip, and in the timeline layers, is depicted by the Promo mask and Promo layers, with the latter having an actionscript code for the scrolling animation. Anyone can pls help me with this?

NOTE: the original fla was written by someone else, am only maintaining and trying to innovate it...
