Hey

How can I dynamically play a sound file, and once it’s finished playing tell the animation to go to a different frame.

I really have no idea, which is why I kinda merged two entirely different bits of code together, jut to give you an idea as to what I’m trying to accomplish.

[AS]  
function sfx1() {  
soundEffect = new Sound();  
soundEffect.attachSound(“coolsound”);  
soundEffect.start(0, 1);  
this.contentPath = “coolsound”;  
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();  
listenerObject.complete = function(eventObject:Object):Void {  
if (this.contentPath == “coolsound”) {  
gotoAndStop(2);  
}  
};  
}  
this.addEventListener(“complete”, listenerObject);  
btn1.onRelease = function() {  
sfx1();  
};  
[/AS]

Thank you
