Hey its me again, im stuck here trying to figure how to jump from one frame a movie clip, rot menu, to a frame of another, main, through a button in rot menu, rot menu is a movie clip in symbol 1 which is in another (cant remeber) in main. from frame 1 of main i want the button to be pressed and it takes you frame 2 of main. im using a tellTarget code, which i think is wrong.

Put this code on the button:  
on(release){  
\_root.my\_MC.gotoAndStop(2); //my\_MC is located on the root.  
}  
I think i might be confused as to where your clips are located. I hope that code helps.
