Gotoandplay issues

Hello, out there.
I am a new flash user trying to figure out a scene issue.

I know that you are not supposed to target a frame number but here’s the deal.

I have 2 scenes (Scene 1 and Scene 2). Both scenes are currently the same and I will be customizing them at a later date.

The scenes are made up of multiple MC’s and I need to target a particular frame. I have named the frame and tried the following script to no avail. When it does work, it goes to the first frame of Scene 2 every time like it is just traveling along the timeline and jumping to Scene 2.

Code I am using on the button is as follows.

on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(“Scene 2”,“startcontent”)
}

I have been trying to get this to work for 3 hours. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can attach the file if needed.

Thank you in advance.
