Hi all,

I am pretty new at Flash, so bare with me 🙂

I bought a flash menu/intro and I have been editing it myself. I am only having one problem.  
I have these buttons (01 through 09) (menu) which are categories of my items. I need to add more buttons, but when i just copy/paste a frame and edit it, it edits the copied frame as well.

Here is my flash:

You can download my .fla file here:

I really really hope someone can show me how to add more buttons.

Thanks in advance,
