What I am trying to do is to have a movieclip or external swf scroll to a y position when I click a button. Say I have 7 picture and 7 buttons. I want to create a sequence of pictures vertically, place that in a movie clip or swf. Then when I click on a button have a that mc or swf scroll to the corresponding picture. So when I click on button 1 it is on picture one, then when I click on button 7 the mc or swf would scroll on the y axis still you got to the corresponding picture. I have the idea, but i just don’t know how to execute. Does anyone know of a tutorial or something that would help?

This is what I have been trying, (but I am running into issues cause the MC is not big enough) I have 7 buttons that I have created, and a MC with 4 pictures. I just don’t know the coding that will let me scroll the MC to a value at why position. Thanks for you time.
