Hi - 
In Flash5, my menu bar is a movie clip with buttons that target
various movieclips and other activity on the main timeline.  If a
button is clicked, another movie clip shows up on the stage next to a
scrollbar.  This scrollbar allows the clip to scroll under a masked
area.  The menu bar also has a scrollbar which is on the main timeline, but when
this scrollbar is pressed, the targeted movie clip scrolls rather than the menu
bar itself.  Here is the action script on each button:

on (release) {
    _root.gotoandplay(450);
}

Please let me know if you would like to download my .fla.

Since I haven't heard from anyone yet, and am still in need of help,
here's a clarification:

This is the website:   www.hillglazier.com
 
I'm currently working on the "publications" scene (see menu tabs at
top).   As you can see, there is a menu of thumbnails along the left
side of the scene.  They want to add more publications periodically so
I thought it would make sense to make the menu itself scroll.  I used
the same symbols in building the scroller, and renamed the instances,
but I think I'm having some trouble with targeting and pathing. I
would like to get the menu to scroll, but if you think there is
another way to make this scene scalable, please let me know. I tried
building a "second page" but it didn't carry over the general
navigation - as there are lots of interactive modules associated with
this project.

The following fla files are in press.zip in my ftp folder. 
 
press_alt.fla is the original scene before any updates (the
"publications" tab on the website).
press_scrollmenu.fla has the scrollbar I added in a clip containing
the updated menu, but the bar doesn't work right.

Still hoping to hear from you guys.  The file that is in my ftp folder
is the current one I need help with, rather than what I've listed
previously.  Do you need more money?
