ARRRRGH!!!!! Trouble will

I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I can't seem to get this tell target command working. Ideally, I'm trying to make a self-help guitar tutorial in flash. Right now, I'm just trying to see if I can get the commmands to work, and so far no good.

Here's a quick view of the .fla file I have.

I'm trying to make it so when I click on a button, the tell target command moves the movie clip to a different frame. This is just a pretty basic example. Eventually, there's going to be a bunch of buttons with a command to make the "questions" movie clip bounce from random question to question. But I figure, I have to master this "tell target" thing before I can get into that stuff.

Any help?

U must understand this: The target is not the movieclip itself but the instance of it. So the name of the clip that u used is useless. U need to select the instance in the stage, open the instance panel and name it. And a small advice: use the dot syntax and (in my opinion) the absolute mode for the paths.

Ahha!! Perfect, thank you. I knew it was something stupid like that
