Death Animation

[COLOR=#000000][FONT=verdana]Can someone please give me an example of some code that would, when an MCs ‘health’ variable is reduced to 0, play a death animation from frames 1 to 42 and then remove the clip from the scene? I can’t seem to get it to remove or play the full animation before it removes, it just stops on frame 2 and keeps on going.[/FONT][/COLOR]
