If you’re using Flash 5, you can double-click a frame to add actionscript to that frame or you can right-click a button on the stage and select actions.

Keep in mind that if you’re adding an actionscript to a frame, you have to make it a keyframe first.

Wake up, neo… This is the Flash MX forum.

I believe there must be an Actions panel somewhere. I have a French version, so I can’t really tell you…

I’m working on a post for the best of Kirupa, which will detail Action Script, instance names, and addressing things. Look for it in the best of Kirupa in about an hour.
