Hey all!

Im new to actionscript, and I am trying to make a volume controller.  
I want to make it like so:  
Theres an Input text box with the Var: “setvol”  
Theres a button, which I didn’t give a name yet.

What I’m trying to do is if the text box (setvol) = 50, and if the button is released, then the volume should be at 50%.

Can anyone here PLEASE help me?  
(btw: I already made the sound play in the background)  
Thx

(I tried tuts on [Kirupa.com](http://Kirupa.com))
