Hi -

I want to use a movie clip as a button, when pressed, to go to frame 2 of another movie clip. Both movie clips are on scene 1 but are located on different frames and layers. I tried but I’m not getting the results. Please help.

Here’s what I used.

on (press) {  
\_parent.dqs281\_mc.gotoAndStop(2);  
}

Is this correct? This is on a button inside a movie clip. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!
