Re: FLASH: MC button Main timeline move

[Karin Christensen]

I hate to argue with you but just a forward slash (/) is all you need

to refer to the main time line from a movie clip.  I suspect there is

something else wrong.  A couple of possibilities is that the label

name is spelled wrong somewhere (I've done that before) or trying to

put the action in the frame of the button instead of the instance of

the button or maybe testing it in the authoring mode. But, the tell

targeting action is correct.
