Okay i am making a simple kids game in flash, basically the kid clicks on the start button, this loads a series of questions, and starts a timer, the kid has to answer the 10 questions, once they have done this it outputs a congratulations message and the time in which it took to do the activity.

Now the timer works great, the problem is that i don’t know how to terminate the activity and output the time, i want it so that when the kid hits the correct answer on the last question it plays a congratulations movie and outputs the time.

If anyone thinks that they can help please reply, and i shall send u the fla.

Thanks
