Just stick the animation for the mouse over in the up state of the second mouse. put a blank frame in frame 1 of the animation with a stop aciton in it. Then put a goto 2 and play action in the last frame of the animation so it will loop.
then just name the movie clip with an instance name and use the tell target command on mouse over to goto and play frame two of the animation. then on mouse out just use the tell target command to goto to frame one. so it resets itself. Regards, Bill

Ok, you have to "simulate" animated buttons: put the animations (2 instances of the movie symbol) and the buttons (2 instances of the button symbol) on separate layers. Now you'll trigger the animation to play by "Tell Target", like this:
On (Roll Over)
Begin Tell Target ("/Movie1")
Play
End Tell Target
Begin Tell Target ("/Movie2")
Play
End Tell Target
End On
On (Roll Out)
Begin Tell Target ("/Movie1")
Stop
End Tell Target
Begin Tell Target ("/Movie2")
Stop
End Tell Target
End On
(you should name the both movies "Movie1" & "Movie2" for this to work)
OR, you can do this with a variable:
(first set)
On (Roll Over)
Set Variable: "Over" = "1"
End On
On (Roll Out)
Set Variable: "Over" = "0"
End On
and then in the Frame 1 of the movie clip:
Set Variable: "Temp" = /:Over
and in the Frame 2 of the movie clip:
Stop
If (Temp=1)
Play
Else
Go to and Play (1)
End If
This is just a idea and is still in "raw" format. I can send you a .fla, or refine that source to sumfing good looking, if you post (or mail ne at brycer@i.am).
Now this won't work if you can't separate the button from the animated part, but... Well, at least i tried
