Hey all peoples:beam:  
Here is the situation, I have a button that makes something move when pressed. But the thing is that I need to keep pressing the button to make it move. Is there a way that I can just press and hold to make it keep moving? Thanks in advance:trout:

Thank you Seretha, and Lunatic.  
I still am having trouble following directions:red:  
I am going to try and attach my simple file, and hopefully someone can help me. Again I want to click and hold the left and right button to continuously scroll.  
Thank you,  
RoxyGurl:D

Here you go 🙂 I used an onEnterFrame handler to make the movement continue when pressed. And when you release the button, the onEnterFrame is removed 🙂
