Hi,

I just completed a [sound tutorial](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/sound.htm)

And i managed to get the sound to load up fine. but I’m really struggling with the stopping of it.

What code should I use to stop the code used in the tutorial above?

Using that same tutorial you could add another button with this on it:

```auto

on (release) {
	kirupaSound.stop();
}

```
