loading movies and resizing. PLEASE HELP

[chewan]

i ****ing hate macs. i just spent 10 mins typing an elaborate message only to press that peice-o-**** clear key they so conveniently placed next to the delete key, but oh well, here was the jist of the message:

ok, here's what my assignment is:

create movie controls for pre-existing movies.

here's what i need:
pause: pauses movie in it's current state
play: plays movies again
previous: unloads current movie and plays previous movie
next: unloads current movie and plays next movie

now what i have is a controls.swf file with all my buttons
as well as movie files (scene0*.swf), which need to be loaded in the background.

using scripting how can i
a. assign functions to buttons to a different movie clip
b. resize movies being imported

please help me. i'm lost. it's my first day of action scripting and with this whole "mac incident" things aren't going my way. thanks peeps.

ps- how the hell can people type on these crappy keyboards, i must've made at atleast 100 typos in this message
