Hi,

I am new here, and new to flash. From what I have read, this will be a geat site to look for answers, and who knows, maybe later, I might even be able to help someone else out.

I am working on a tutorial that uses the action panel. There seem to have been some changes between MX (the tutorial is written for MX) and 8. I am using 8. I have searched online and I cannot find out how to do this. These are the directions (best way to try and explain what I mean) The tutorial is for _Animating Using Symbols and Masks and Publishing Flash Movies_

\*Open the actions panel  
Scroll down the toolbox until you can see Objects.  
Click Object to expand the Objects list.  
Click Movie to expand the Objects/Movie list.  
Scrool down the Objects/Movie toolbox list and then click MovieClip.  
Click the Methods in the Objects/Movie toolbox list.  
Scroll down the Objects/Movie toolbox list and then double click stop.  
yada yada yada…  
\*  
I can’t find the Object list. Or at least not in the order that is listed above.  
Basically the statement should look like this:

\*onClipEvent (load) {  
LeftBulb.stop();  
RightBulb.stop();  
}  
\*  
Hope someone can help.  
Thanks,
