Hey people,

Quick question, may be simple, may be complex, not sure, but I am trying to figure a way how to control a movie clip’s action based on the computer’s system time.

So say if it is before 12:00pm , I want the movie clip to gotoAndStop frame 1,

if it is after 12:00pm go to frame 2.

seems simple, but haven’t messed with Flash’s control of system time. I think it can be done,  
cool beans,

Thanks guys.:hitman:
