import flash.events.MouseEvent;

act_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onMouseC lick);
act_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onOut);

function onMouseClick(event:MouseEvent):void
{

 quick01.visible=false; (quick01 is movieclip1 instance name)
 quack01.visible=true;(quack01 is moviclip2 instance name)
 quack01.play();
 }
 
 function onOut(event:MouseEvent):void 
 { 

   
   quack01.visible=false;
   quick01.visible=true;
