This has probably been answered before but I couldn’t seem to find it. (I am fairly new to this site and FlashMX)

I have up and down buttons controlling the .\_y value of an adjacent MClip. At the (for the up arrow) moment I have:  
on(rollOver){  
myMovieClip.\_y -= 5;  
}  
this works fine but I need it to continuously scroll while the mouse is over (or Press if need be).  
I think it is setInterval that I need for this but I can’t remember how to do it.

Can someone help with this?

Thanks in advance. :thumb:
