programming flash

hi im not sure how to put this… but i need help finishing out the pathway to my movie clip… or somthing like that… let me explain…
this is how my document is set out…
-> means the next this is inside the one before it.
Scene 1 -> Menu ->Tween 1 ->Button1 -> home(mc)

what i want to do is… when my mouse rolls over the button1, it will make home(mc) go to a certain frame and start ot play… this is what i could come up with but it didnt work… i got the path wrong i thinks…

on (rollOver) {
button1.home(mc).gotoAndPlay(2);
}

that part of code is on the button1…

plz can someone help :smiley: i would be very greatfull…

rename home(mc) to home_mc, i get here an error that home(mc) is reserved by the system…

else check if this works:

on (rollOver) {
this.home_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
}

or

on (rollOver) {
_parent.home_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
