Is there an easier way then putting gotoandplay on each and every frame? Also How do I animate properties using set property. Can you also explain to me the use of getproperty
and maybe put it in a fla I could download?I'll give you my site address and password so that you'llbe able to upload it but if you don't have time then thanks anyway.

OK i have reworked your fla now i need an email address to send it to. As far as your other questions, set Property is used to set any property of an object like this:

set Property ("myClip","_alpha",50) but I'd rather write it as:

myClip._alpha = 50;

this is using dot notation.

get Property returns the property of an object like this:

get Property ("myClip", _x ) to get the x position of myClip.

Heres another problem I'm having How would you be able to press the button and the clip stay on the screen? I would add an action like

OnClipEvent (mousedown) {
_alpha = _alpha -2

to have it fade away.See I want the movie clip like a little window that will popup through a button then be able to click it to alpha to 0.
