Hi all!

I’ve just started using Flash MX and I have recently created a Web based slide presentation. What I would like to do is t o have a small narrative on each slide.

I figure having the sound clip for each slide (frame) as an independant sound object is the way to go.

Where I’d like some advice…  
I want to have the clip start after a brief delay (2-3sec), and also to completely stop before the user moves to the next frame. However, if they want to skip the slide, I want to avoid 2 clips playing simultaneously.

Should I put a stop to all sounds command before I start the clip for each frame?  
What’s the best way to control the sound in this fashion?

Any advice appreciated!
