Mel,


There are a couple ways to do this.  One way would be to have your "pop up" box

in its own movie clip with an empty first frame.  That frame would have a stop

action (so the pop up is not visible).  Name the instance "popup1" to follow the

example below.


When you mouse over the button, Tell Target->Go to and stop at the frame in your

movie clip where the box is visible (probably frame 2 in this case, labeled

"showpopup" in the example below).  Your button should have an action something

like this:


On (Roll Over)

      Begin Tell Target ("/popup1")

            Go to and Stop ("showpopup")

      End Tell Target

End On


Your pop up would contain the "drag" commands, etc. for dragging the popup.


Good luck.
