RE: FLASH: .fla help

[Lamont, Sarah]

I'm not sure I'm understanding what the problem is....

you should be able to make anything a button by selecting it, pressing f8,

and choosing "button". If the object in question is already a symbol, press

command + I, and you'll get the object information dialog box. In there, you

can make that instance of the symbol a button if you want. Then, by

option-clicking on the button, you'll go into edit mode, and can edit the

button as you like. 

If you need more explanation, just let me know!

hope that helped some, though : ],
