I need to update a project by converting the following code from Flash 5 to Actionscript 2.0 Any help would be greatly appreciated.

on (press) {  
startDrag("", false, 0, 0, 835, 0); /_width of dragable area_/  
tellTarget (\_root.player.dr) {  
gotoAndPlay(“drag”);  
}  
tellTarget (\_root.player.play) {  
gotoAndStop(2);  
}  
}  
on (release) {  
stopDrag();  
tellTarget (\_root.player.dr) {  
gotoAndPlay(1);  
}  
}

setProperty(\_root.player.drag.dragMC, \_x, math.floor(Number(getProperty(\_root.player.movie, \_currentframe))/Number(getProperty(\_root.player.movie, \_totalframes))\*835));  
/_width of play area_/  
gotoAndPlay(\_currentframe - 1);

tellTarget (\_root.player.movie) {  
gotoAndPlay(math.floor(Number(getProperty (\_root.player.movie, \_totalframes )) \* (Number(getProperty (\_root.player.drag.dragMC, \_x )) \* 0.01) / 8.35));  
/_width of dragable area_/  
if (Number(getProperty (\_root.player.drag.dragMC, \_x ))\<5) {  
gotoAndPlay(1);  
}  
}  
gotoAndPlay(\_currentframe - 1);
