this is what I have right now,

if(\_root.\_currentframe = 3)  
{  
myQuestionArray[0] = new questions(“Stem Cell Research”, “broad”);  
myQuestionArray[1] = new questions(“Stem Cell Research and Ethical Aspects”, “research”);  
myQuestionArray[2] = new questions(“Stem Cell Extraction and New Method”, “narrow”);  
}  
else if(\_root.\_currentframe = 4)  
{  
myQuestionArray[0] = new questions(“Alcoholism”, “broad”);  
myQuestionArray[1] = new questions(“Employee Alcoholism and Management”, “research”);  
myQuestionArray[2] = new questions(“Employee Alcoholism and Hangovers and Profits”, “narrow”);  
}

these are inside of a movie on a button, and I want to change the contents of an array based on the frame the user is in, any help is appreciated
