Flash CS3 - Alternate for onClipEvent?

Hello - I have 5 image segments on a single PNG file. I am trying to get each of the 5 segments to “fly in” left and right and be revealed inside of a mask. It works, BUT only if I refer to a very old tutorial using onClipEvent, where the ActionScript is placed on the image’s MC instance name (messy!). For some reason, I can only get this to work if I publish in Flash 6. Using ActionScript 2.0, I am trying to publish this as a version 8 SWF. Not sure what is deprecated, but onClipEvent seems suspect.

I have tried (and failed) using onEnterFrame. The buttons no longer get that PNG to move left and right.

It might be easier to see it, than explain what I have going on…

Attached is a zipped file with 2 FLAs:
tar_Flash6.fla (old AS code)
tar_Flash8.fla (new attempt at AS = not working)

Any help at all is certainly appreciated!
