I’m trying to condense some of this script. I’ve come a long way but I think it could be better. Is there a way I could condense this anymore?

```auto

//
buttonArray = [];
buttonArray[0] = [designButton, function () {
    gotoAndStop ("homedesign");
    section.text = "Home Design";
    setMenu (0);
}];
buttonArray[1] = [paintingButton, function () {
    gotoAndStop ("about");
    section.text = "About";
    setMenu (1);
}];
buttonArray[2] = [about, function () {
    gotoAndStop ("about");
    section.text = "About";
    setMenu (2);
}];
buttonArray[3] = [commercial, function () {
    gotoAndStop ("commercial");
    section.text = "Commercial";
    setMenu (3);
}];
buttonArray[4] = [interior, function () {
    gotoAndStop ("interior");
    section.text = "Interior";
    setMenu (4);
}];
buttonArray[5] = [exterior, function () {
    gotoAndStop ("exterior");
    section.text = "Exterior";
    setMenu (5);
}];
buttonArray[6] = [contact, function () {
    gotoAndStop ("contact");
    section.text = "Contact";
    setMenu (6);
}];

//
function setMenu (n) {
    for (var i:Number = 0; i < buttonArray.length; i++) {
        if (i != n) {
            buttonArray*[0].gotoAndStop ("up");
            buttonArray*[0].func = buttonArray*[1];
            buttonArray*[0].onRollOver = function () {
                this.gotoAndStop ("over");
            };
            buttonArray*[0].onRollOut = function () {
                this.gotoAndStop ("up");
            };
            buttonArray*[0].onPress = function () {
                this.onEnterFrame = this.func;
            };
            buttonArray*[0].onRelease = function () {
                delete this.onEnterFrame;
                delete this.onRollOver;
                delete this.onRollOut;
            };
        }
        buttonArray[n][0].gotoAndStop ("active");
    }

}

setMenu (2);

```
