I am creating a flash presentation with various music loops. I want to have a music on/off button but if it is turned off and then back on later during the presenation, I want the sound to start playing according to the frame that the presentation is on.

Is this possible & if so how?

Do you have flash 3, 4, or 5?

There is a way to do this in 5, but I will have to look it up again. I did this for a site that I build for fun. I will put it back up if I can find it.

Let me get this strait first, you want to be able to start some music / sound and then have a button to stop it. You then want that same button to start a different piece of music / sound depending on the frame.

This will take quite a bit of action scripting.

It would be much easier to have another frame trigger another piece of music / sound.

I will look up how I did this before, but it could take a few days (I am really backed up with work, but I have time to come by here between projects)

I have several music loops & sound fx that play along with the movie, what I want is to be able to off/mute the sound but for it to play again if the sound button was turned back on, but play depending on what frame the movie is on so that sound effects played at the right place/time, not from the beginning again.
