Basic flash question...newbie

1

I need to create a projector file that does some basic things. Basically it just has to have some buttons on it, and each button will open a different pdf file (located on a cd, with the flash exe file). Also when you hold your mouse over the button, it will put a certain description into a text box in the center of the screen. I spent around 5 hours last night trying to do this with zero luck at all. Anyone have any tips?
