I want to make a button where if you roll out it it loads a swf and a text, but once rollOut it disappears and then when you press it loads a different swf and txt. The problem is that the roll over cmd make the press button not work, so when you press the button and u move the mouse away it unloads it too. Any ideas?:q:

Well theres probably an issue with your code. This worked in my example.  
on (rollOver) {  
loadMovie(“export.swf”, “first\_mc”);  
}  
on (rollOut) {  
unloadMovie(“first\_mc”);  
}  
on (release) {  
loadMovie(“new.swf”,"new\_mc);  
myTextField.text = “Hello”;  
}  
Try this, hope it helps

This should work, your not loading an external .txt file are you? If so the code is different.

on(rollOver){  
myTextField.text = “Hello”;  
on(rollOut){  
myTextField.text = “”;  
}

Dont copy and paste the code but thats what it should look like.

Hope this helps
