FLASH: MC Instance not starting over?

[Cheri Harder]

I think I've been looking at this project far too long.  I have a MC that

draws a box.  I have 4 instances of the MC on my timeline.  Each time I tell

target the outer MC to go to and play a frame that contains an instance of

this MC, shouldn't the MC start from frame 1?  I mean, theoretically, with

nothing telling it otherwise, shouldn't it start over?


It seems that the first instance (first in the timeline, not necc. first one

I pick, although the first one I pick always works ok, too) of the MC always

starts from frame 1, but any other instance starts from wherever a prior

instance left off...if at the end, then it doesn't play at all.  If in the

middle, it merely changes to its own color/tint effect and continues on its

merry way from where the prior one left off.


Could this MC be too far nested?  I didn't think there was a restriction on

that?  Could it just be that I should be out enjoying the sunshine and

80-degree weather instead of working on my portfolio?  Hmmmm.
