Folks, I have a movie clip that I want the user to be able to scale up or down in increments of 10% by pressing the up and down buttons. I think I’m close, any help would be appreciated.

on (keyPress “\<Up\>”) {  
\_root.myclip.\_xscale (110);  
\_root.myclip.\_yscale (110);  
}  
on (keyPress “\<Down\>”) {  
\_root.myclip.\_xscale, (90);  
\_root.myclip.\_yscale, (90);  
}
