Help fading multiple mc's

Hi all

Tearing my hair out here!

Basically I have 6 mc’s, when each is hovered I need the other mc’s to fade to 30% alpha. I also have a text box which fades in and has button-specific text inserted on hover.

The actionscript I’m using is on a separate mc over the images and it only works if you have 1, if I duplicate it, it stops working properly:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true)) {
setProperty ("_root.mc2", _alpha, “30”);
setProperty ("_root.mc3", _alpha, “30”);
setProperty ("_root.mc4", _alpha, “30”);
setProperty ("_root.mc5", _alpha, “30”);
setProperty ("_root.mc6", _alpha, “30”);
_root.textbox.nextFrame();
_root.textbox.textholder.header = “…banks”
_root.textbox.textholder.body = “Gunnebo Banking are responsible for Gunnebo Banking are responsible for Gunnebo Banking are responsible for Gunnebo Banking are responsible for Gunnebo Banking are responsible for Gunnebo Banking are responsible for Gunnebo Banking are responsible for Gunnebo Banking are responsible for "
} else {
_root.textbox.prevFrame();
setProperty (”_root.mc2", _alpha, “100”);
setProperty ("_root.mc3", _alpha, “100”);
setProperty ("_root.mc4", _alpha, “100”);
setProperty ("_root.mc5", _alpha, “100”);
setProperty ("_root.mc6", _alpha, “100”);

}

}

but there must be another way!!! HELP!

I’d like the others to fade as opposed to jump to the 30% alpha too, so if you can do that, awesome!

FLA file attached, hope you can help!

Thanks in advance people
