you know what if you get it then holla back but if not then dont werry bout it. i was reading the tut on this site but was a bit more than what i wanted being that i wanned to use my own graphic.

i used this

-----on (rollOver) {  
setProperty("\_root.cap", \_visible, visible=100);  
}  
on (rollOver) {  
startDrag("\_root.cap", true);  
}  
on (rollOut) {  
setProperty("\_root.cap", \_visible, visible=0);  
}------

a bit crude but it works LOL
