Hey there !

I got a really simple question.

How do I make a button on the main timeline that will set various movieclips within other movieclips to jump to a spesific frame number in their own timeline when pressed ?  
Like, I have a 10 frame movieclip that contains several different weapons on each frame, and I want that button on the main timeline to make the MCs to jump to the desired frame number to change all the weapons at the same time. Hope I made it clear.

Thanks for any help
