Anyone know where I can find a tutorial that isn’t half-a##ed written, that is understandable by english speaking Americans, and that will work with Flash 4 using a Macintosh computer operating OS 9.1? I have tried a dozen tutes and they seem to be missing critical steps in making this scrolling text box concept a reality.  
Please help!
