I had this problem once, this is my solution:
for simplicity, we will say the code has 3 numbers. and that code will be 486.
your set up will look something like this: (attached file)
on the very first frame of animation you have this:
```auto
global.keycode = 0
```
on each of the keypad buttons (1-9) you have this code:
[AS]on (release) {
keycode\*=10;
keycode+= (the value of the button ex. 5 or 9);
}
```auto
then, on the "submit" button, you have:
```
on (release) {
if (code == 486){
(what ever the proceed animation is)
output.text = “Accepted”;
} else {
output.text = “Denied”;
code = 0;
}
}
```auto
and in the properties window for the output box (dynamic text box) named output, set the VAR: keycode.
that should pretty much do it. play with it a bit if it doesn't work.
now, if you will excuse me, I'm going to go get a drink.
