I am trying to adapt the code from a Kirupa Tutorial to make a Sliding Menu ([kirupa.com - Sliding Menu](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/slidingMenu.htm))…

With the code below, I don’t get any error message, but the slide just does not move. Doesn’t twitch. LOL :huh:

Maybe someone can help me figure it out? Also I believe this should help other people as I saw there had been some previous requests for a converted code for that tutorial.

Thanks a zillion!!! :azn:
