Subject:	Re: FLASH: target main time line.

If you want to target the main time line itself use:
Begin Tell Target ("/")
Stop
Go to Previous Frame
End Tell Target

if you want to target 'something' on the main time line the
'something' should have an instance name and you code would look like:
Begin Tell Target ("/instancename_of_something")
Stop
Go to Previous Frame
End Tell Target
