Conditional statements in AS3

Hi Guys,

I’m attempting to get MC’s to interact with each other so that when a dropdown menu is clicked others return to their original state. You can see an example of where I am upto here

So basically what I want to do is something similar to the following.

*User clicks on button 1
*Flash checks states of buttons 2 and 3
*If buttons 2 and 3 are closed flash opens button 1
*If buttons 2 or 3 are open flash closes them and opens button 1.

The fla can be supplied if required but be warned I’m a designer not a coder so the AS might be impenetrable.

I hope someone can help.
