Hello Flashmeisters! :pleased:

I am having some trouble making a button that will resume the sound in my Flash Animation.

I have an animation that is spread over several Layers and several Scenes. I also have sound clips (mp3s) placed on different layers, in many different areas. I was able to make a button that when pressed stops all the sound by using this simple actionscript:

on (release) {  
stopAllSounds();  
}

My goal is to have a button so users can stop and resume streaming sound at any time throught the animation.

However I can’t seem to make a button that after it stops the sound, when pressed again would resume the sound. I have seen some tutorials that explain how to stop and start a **single** audio file, but how can I make a button that will stop and resume multiple streaming audio files that are placed in several different places?

I made the script below up and was wondering if there is an existing simple actionscript code that would be similar to it that would work for when a button is pressed it would resume the sound?

on (release) {  
PlayAllSounds();  
}

Many thanks! And any help will be _ **HUGELY** _ apprecaited!
