Try using "Go to and Play" and check "expression".

Put p in the expression field (without any quotes).

If the variable (in this case p) equates to a string, Flash looks for a 

label name.

If it holds a number, Flash looks for a frame number.


Note that Flash's random number function (somewhat non-intuitively) 

chooses a number between 0 to (n-1), so you may want to make your 

variable setting look more like:


Set Variable: "p" = random (5)+1
