Here’s my dilemma:

I have a button that plays a sound when clicked. I want a particular mc to play when it is clicked. When I watch the animation in the timeline, the movie clip does not appear (which is what I want it to do–until the button is clicked), but when I preview it, the movie clip plays without pushing the button.

That’s problem #1

Here’s #2:

The mc contains a button that stops the sound, and that works fine. But I want the mc to disappear when it is clicked.

I know this is kinda confusing so if you don’t understand my problem, I’ll try a different way to explain it.

Please help.

I deleted basically everything from the library and it’s still too big for some reason. Can I just email it to you?

genghis: Try to use \_visible for the button presses. Kinda like if you have a button inside the mc and you want it to make the mc dissapear, use this on the button:  
[AS]  
on(release) {  
\_root.Mymovieclip.\_visible = false;  
}  
[/AS]

i think the \_visible script would work, but the mc is visible before the play button is even clicked.
