I want to create a button that plays a movie clip on mouseover but on mouseout plays the movie in reverse. I’ve tried various approaches and have not yet found one that works. I am using Flash MX. Can anyone help me?

reverse? why not just have your mc play it backwards in a later frame? you can then call it through with();
