I am trying to learn to use .attach and well first i got 5 frames of animation under the mc Walking then on the main screen i just had a Mc of the animation still then on it i put on the still mc

onClipEvent(enterFrame){  
if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)){  
this.attachMovie(“Walking”, “Walking1”, 1 );  
this.\_x += 5;  
}

}  
and when i test it all it does when i hit right once it starts the walking animation moves 5 pixels but is still and if i hold down right it goes back to the Still mc and drags across
