Hi all!.  
First of all, please, apologize my english not so good.  
Recently i bought “Action script -the definitive guide” in attemp to learn actionscript, im flash designer for years, is time to learn more. But i was dissapointed with my knowledge of AS at the start of the book. Im triyng to make a AS flash website and i ve answers, i know im mistaking but… in the fail i ll learn.

i ve a frame with this code:

button\_btn.onRelease = function () {  
movieclip\_MC.stop (“sound”);  
};

this code is in \_root, but when i press the button the sound still playing. Whats wrong?

P.D: “sound” is the name of the sound i want to stop, not a label in a frame

Thanks a lot.
