    (still need help!) Movie clip control help

    Ok I'm not really a newbie but I've gone a little while without using actionscript and my minds blank.

    I've got a movieclip called "anim" on the second frame inside another movie clip called "ship". I need it so that on the last frame of "anim" it tells "ship" (the movie clip that it is inside) to go to and stop at the first frame. But I can't think how to do it >_<

    I know it's simple but can't think how to do it, any help is really appreciated thanks
