Hello all,

I am using the following to load a series of MC’s from the library. (obviously this just loads the mc1 clip, once mc1 is done, a next button loads mc2, and so on…)

btn1.onPress = function () {  
\_root.attachMovie(“mc1”, “newInstanceName”, 1, {\_x: 20, \_y: 90});

}

My problem now is, once the MC is loaded, I want to allow the user to pause/play, and restart the movie clip. I tried a few options that I found, but so far nothing has ‘stuck’. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
