Thanks

Thanks very much for the updated fla, I've added the script to my nested MC's.

With regard to the sound I just have the sound attached to a keyframe on the timeline of my Main MC. It is set as an event with no repeat.

To give a little more information. The project is a demostration of a software / database product. It uses a voiceover to illustarte what is available. I have then animated various sections of the software, ie, accessing information through a web browser, mouse movements to acces information and other graphic animations. All of these animations are small MC files that I have nested within a main MC file that contains the audio files at the correct point. Adding your new piece of script has paused all the MC's correctly, but when I use stop all sounds and then press the pause/play button to begin the animation again the sound only starts again at the next keyframe of new sound.

If I put these audio files in an MC and then add your additional script would that pause the sound?

Thanks again for all your efforts they are much appreciated.

Thanks
