Hi all,

I am still having trouble getting my head around how to sequence movie clips to play in a certain order. I want to play one movie clip that is animated using actions and then once that clip is finished, play the next one (naturally, to create some sort of design.)

If I have two MC’s that have separate scripts on them - how would I go about playing the first movie clip and once that animation is finished playing the next one?

I’ve tried placing a 2ndmovieclipname.stop () style script at the end of the first movie clip, but no luck there. I am currently using Flash MX 2004.

Best,

PS - I do not have my clips animated with frames, so I don’t believe the option to gotoAndPlay (frame x) is available to me.
