Hi,  
I’m sure a lot of you guys will laugh at my noobness, but here goes:  
So I have a series of movie clips(info\_mc) with a movie clip(hover\_mc) and buttons(info\_btn) inside them. The reason I did this is because I had problems controlling a movie clip in a button.

So what I would like to do is group the buttons together somehow so that when one is pressed the others go .enabled=false; I think setting up an array might be the way to do this, but I don’t know how to set one up correctly.

But wait, there is more 😛 What I also want to do is have another series of buttons, that when pressed allow the array of info buttons to become enabled.

Can anybody help?  
Thank you
