Hi there.

I have just started using Flash MX and I am trying to create a rollover effect.

I want to change some dynamic text whenever the mouse roll’s over a button. I want each button to display its own phrase and i want the dynamic text to appear blank when the mouse isn’t over any of the buttons.

I have experimented with actionscript but cant seem to get it working as desired

How is this done. Can anyone help me.

:\*(
