I am a brand new Flash user…So the question that i have, might be really simple for some but is making my life a living hell.  
While surfing the web looking for examples about ListBox and more tutorials for flash 8, i found this:

[SIZE=2]\*\*Creating a List Box  
\*\*The following steps will explain how to setup the movie for creating the above animation:[/SIZE]  
[LIST=1]  
[\*]Open the source file provided with Flash MX. You’ll see 4 layers : **code** , **dynamic text** , **list box** and **background**.  
\<LI style=“FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial” type=i\>Open the Component Panel and drag the List Box Component on the **list box** layer like shown on the screenshot below. [/LIST][FONT=Arial] [/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]The previous text, is a small part of a tutorial found here ( ([[COLOR=#800080]http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/listbox.htm[/COLOR]](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/listbox.htm)) [FONT=Arial] [/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]I was wondering if anyone could help me with 2 questions that i have in mind.[/FONT]  
[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]1-. Check the letter i. Is there any kind of “source file” that comes with Flash MX in order to do that same tutorial? I have tried N times to do it, but i cant. [/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]2-. Since it is for Flash MX can i try to do it with Flash 8 ?[/FONT]
