I will try to describe my problem in the most comprehensive way so pls don't get borred!

I have 1 "principal" movie wich contains a picture (i have made an animation on this one), and a button wich leads to another movie inside the "principal" one.
In the second movie i have 2 frame labels wich corespond to 2 "blocks" of text.When i press the button in the "principal" movie i want the first "block" of text from the second movie to appear.In the second movie i have also a button : NEXT (corresponding to the first frame label) ,and when i press this button the second "block" of text will appear.
THE PROBLEM appears here:When i press the NEXT button (located in the second movie...pls excuse my repetitions)the second "block" of text will appear.WHEN I PRESS the button in the "principal" movie the screen does not return to the first block of text(corresponding to the first frame label from the second movie) but remains on the second "block".
I want this to happen:When the screen shows the second "block" of text and i press the button from the "principal" movie, the second movie should load and the scrren should show the first "block" of text.


IF YOU DIDN'T understand my explination...it sounds a little bitt of strange to me too....i can send you the ".fla"

You did what i could not to!
How?

You have to learn to name intances of your movie clips so you can better control them.

So select your Symbol2 movie, and in the Instance panel give it the name of symb2. Do the same thing for your ServicesMovie clip and name it servicesmc.

Then correct your button Symbol3's actionscript as follows(add the bold):

on (press) {
gotoAndPlay ("Services");
_root.symb2.servicesmc.gotoAndPlay(1);
}

While your at it, might as well add a stop(); action on the first frame of your main movie. It serves no purpose to have loop for 39 frames.
