Yep… ```auto on (release) { mySound = new Sound(this); mySound.attachSound("myMusic"); mySound.start(0, 99); } ``` Now open your library, right click on the sound you want to load, choose “linkage…”. Select the checkbox that says “Export for Actionscript” then give it the name “myMusic” (without quotes). 99 is the amount of loops. ---

Oh, duh me, That is what I get for taking that from a file on my computer about sound on off buttons. ```auto mySound = new Sound(this); mySound.attachSound("myMusic"); mySound.start(0, 99); ``` Just add that code to your frame, tah dah. What do you mean about your preloader? ---

Try adding the sound actions AFTER your preloader. That should work. I don’t know anything about the preloader component, but considering the many posts here about problems with it, I am not sure I even want to try it. ---

Just a theory, but since I am supposing you can designate the action for if all the frames are loaded. You can insert the code there. so its like if the frames are loaded, goto and play whatever, and then add the sound code after that. Again just theory, but I guess it is worth a try. ---

Very interesting. I don’t know enough to know how to fix it. I think I know why it doesn’t work though. I think it starts loading the song because it is in the library and it is loading the library beforehand. Just theory (me and my theories) Anywho, you can try dynamically loading it into Flash… [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/loading.asp](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/loading.asp)
