Hello again,  
I was wondering if someone has an idea how to capture the “progressbar\_mc.\_xscale” on the fly, on a button press and store that info in a variable.  
My head is about to blow and I just can’t get my head round the idea.

snd.onEnterFrame = function() {  
this.loaded = this.\_sound.getBytesLoaded()/this.\_sound.getBytesTotal();  
progressbar\_mc.\_xscale = loadingbar\_mc.\_xscale\*this.position/this.\_sound.duration;  
this.updateTime();  
};

Any help would be greatly appreciated!  
Thanks  
M
