Is it possible to to do the following with Flash?

One movie contains 15 buttons which when pressed pastes a letter into another movie.

Would this code be in the right direction? Any idea how I could modify it?

```auto
[font=Courier new]on (release){
   System.setClipboard("some text");
}

```

[font=Verdana]I’ve been playing round with Macromedias LC tut but it’s not really working for me…

Have attached swf of the idea. Buttons need to be in a seperate swf though. Does anyone know how to do that?
