edit: My problem is with swapping depth within a movie clip.

It all originates with this kirupa tutorial.  
[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/swapdepth.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/swapdepth.htm)

Attached to the below link is a zip files containing the completed tutorial .fla and a second file similar .fla with one difference. I’ve taken the entirs contents and placed them withing a single movie clip.

When i put the entire contents within a movie clip it stopped working. At first I figured it was because the actionscript on the button aspect of the file did not point to the right object anymore because it chaged locations. I attempted to point it to the rihgt place but i think i goofed it without enough understanding of some aspects of actionscipt.

If anyone could help me it would be appretiated,

Thanks
