Make the last frame of the movie a key frame. Then stop the movie at that frame. This makes the movie stay still.<br>THen if it the actions are simple mouseovers, add the interactivity to the button symbol.<br>If you want some more animation, just load a different movie into the same space&nbsp;&nbsp;and make sure that when it plays through, it will bring you back to the original movie<br><br>madhavan<br>
