    Okay..

    Here is what you do.
    Open your Library (CTRL+L)
    and Drag and Drop your Completed Button onto your Movie.
    Now, Right Click the button, and goto Actions.
    Now, What you want to do is add a Mouse Event, On (Releaase)
    Put the URL in there, yadda yadda yadda, and Poof!

    1. TO TARGET A URL - right click on the instance of your button, on the stage..Go to actions..Click on basic actions and then "ON MOUSE EVENT"...Chose your mouse event state..The go back to basic actions and choose "GET URL"..

    2. TO TARGET A FRAME WITHIN YOUR MOVIE - Go back to ON MOUSE EVENT then go back to basic actions and select "GotoAndPlay" from there you can select your parameters..
