I have a button that effects the alpha of an MC on mouseover. I can’t figure out how to create a fade with the alpha shift.

This is what I’m using right now. AS is placed on button that controls the MC.

on (rollOver){  
\_root.background.frame\_2.\_alpha = 25;  
\_root.background.frame\_3.\_alpha = 25;  
\_root.background.frame\_4.\_alpha = 25;  
\_root.background.frame\_5.\_alpha = 25;  
\_root.background.frame\_6.\_alpha = 25;  
}  
on (rollOut){  
\_root.background.frame\_2.\_alpha = 100;  
\_root.background.frame\_3.\_alpha = 100;  
\_root.background.frame\_4.\_alpha = 100;  
\_root.background.frame\_5.\_alpha = 100;  
\_root.background.frame\_6.\_alpha = 100;  
}

Thanks for any assistance.
