button animation area

[Guest_imported]

I wish to create a button, that when the mouse is put over it, the text changes to a color, then when the mouse goes off the button, it reverts back. The best thing i managed to do was to get it all working, except you HAD to put the mouse on the text for the text to change color, and not the rest of the area of the button. PLZ HELP
This may be simple and ezy to do, but im new to this stuff. I am using Macromedia Flash 5.

Very easy you'll see.

First make you buttons shape when you done add the text over it (still in the same frame)

when you're done select all (form and text) press F8 choose button.

Double click it, in the over, down and hit frames press F6
now you should have 4 frames with a dot in each.

Click the over frame, click the text and change it's color.
Do the same for down.
For the hit zone, it will use the same shape as your button.

Hope it'll help ;-)
Have Fun...
