Hi,


I've done this with tell target and set property 'visibility' . I 

created MC which I let fade in (not fade out actually) I putted a 

stop in the first empty frame of the MC and on the last frame.

On stage I dragged the MC and set the property visability to false. 

On the button I set property vis. true (and for the other MC's false) 

tell target and play.

This workes nice but..........I'm not a programmer but learning and 

when I did this using 11 buttons it was to much on the tell target I 

think because my Mac crashed totally. So ther should probbably a 

quicker way but this for start.


regards

Karin
