Greetings. I’m new at Kirupa and very happy to have discovered this place.

[FONT=‘Times New Roman’]I am editing one of our flash sites with Flash MX 2004 Pro and all of the scrollers stopped working. There are 5 swf’s in the site: main and 4 pages. When the fla’s (main and pages 1-4) are saved in Flash 2004 MX professional, the scrollers stop working. When pages 1-4 are saved in regular MX, the scrollers work again, but, only alone as pages. If the whole site is run via main (whole site, main + pages 1-4 saved in older format), the scrollers stop working. Our url is [[COLOR=#800080]http://www.thewholeenchilada.info[/COLOR]](http://www.thewholeenchilada.info/). The site is a work in progress all sections are not fully developed. The action scripts for the scroller instances are:[/FONT]

I would truly appreciate some help with making the scrollers work.

Thanks much,
