Animation in background/framelabel

I have a problem that I’m not sure how I can fix.

I have a background image which goes out to frame 45 and is located on 1 layer.

I have an animation in the background which goes out to frame 45 and is located on 2 layers.
I have 3 buttons that I’ve added and what I’d like to do is call
a section via a framelabel to bring down from the top and stop.

My problem is #1, it won’t work. And #2, the animation in the background
stops when I try to setup something like this.

What is proper protocol for setting something up like this? Can someone point
me to FLA that already does this so I can look at how to do it?
