hey guys,

I have a menu bar slider that was created in flash 5 - but of course once I bring into flash 8 the action script ceases to work correctly.

its probably very quick fix, but im a bit lost here, tried everything.

anyone able to quickly skim over my code and tell me whats wrong? and how to update it to flash 8?

heres the FLA

best,
