FLASH: buttons/symbols/instances/tell targets

[Bob Schwartz]

Hi,


I am confused (what else is new<g>) as to when to edit, in order to 

assign actions such as "start" and "stop", buttons...since flash allows 

you to edit the symbols, themselves, as well as instances.


to wit, i want to use one button to start animation with music and 

allow the user to press the same button to stop.  


I have also been told to use tell target to do this.


Which should I use, please (and why), and when, if one really ought to 

be at least using instances for such things if not, "tell 

targets",would one assign actions to the symbol, itself?


many thanks in advance.
