    I have a list of the months. When the mouse is placed over the text it will bring up a schedule just for that month.. It works fine, but when the mouse is placed in the area where the text for the schedule is, the schedule pops up.. How do i stop this.. I put the text for the schedule in the up state of the button, nothing in the down state and the hit area is just the text for the month.. What am I doing wrong or how can I change it???
    Thanks

    I think your problem is that the area of a button is taken from all the frames it has, right?
    To prevent this, just put that text into a movie clip which has nothing but Stop(); in frame 1 and the text in frame 2. When you want to display that text, just do: movieclip.gotoAndStop(2); and movieclip.gotoAndStop(1); on rollOut.
