Use the  rotation property and then loop.


New Symbol=Movie Clip


*Frame 1 [no label]

		Set Variable:"rotprop" = 0


*Frame 2 [Frame label=repeatloop]

	Set Property ("propellor", Rotation) = rotprop


[Sets the amount (degrees) of rotation of your Graphic mc "propellor to be

equal to the variable rotprop  n.b. the frame label]


*Frame 3 [no label]

	Set Variable: rot =rot+5

	Go to and Play ("repeatloop")


[Increments the variable rotprop by 5 degrees(or whatever) then goes to

frame2] ... forever



This principle of increment and loop for rotation can also be used to

change x,y positions and alpha, all are well explained in the PDF Flash4

manual.
