Using various parts of the same sound effect?

[rflook]

Hi,

I am an intermediate flash user who has never really had any experience using sounds in my movies. Now i want to be able to use an mp3 (the james bond theme) in one of my movies. What i ideally want to be able to do is to use the one mp3 but have various scenes play only specific parts of the mp3. Can this be done. Every time i have tried to attach the sound to one of my layers it would only play from the beginning of the mp3. Is it possible to make the mp3 play from specific points or will it always play from the beginning of the track?

Many thanks in advance for any help.

You can use the second offset parameter (the first parameter in the start action), to start it from any offset...
As explained here...

or you can create various sound files, which might be easier to conceptualize..

use a free software program with some options like
audacity.
