I’m just learning AS3 and trying to re-learn some simple things. Basically I have a bunch of buttons that tween corresponding movie clips.

```auto
import fl.transitions.*;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
 
b1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, sho)
 
function sho (e:Event){
 sho2(box1)
}
 
 
function sho2 (clip){
 var bb = new Tween (clip, "x", Regular.easeOut, 10, 100, 1, true)}

```

I want to know how to trigger sho2 function directly. If I change “MouseEvent.CLICK, sho”  
to “MouseEvent.CLICK, sho2(box1)” I get errors.

Is there any way for me to do this without daisy-chaining functions?
