Hey Devric,

Check this post I wrote about making movieclips buttons in AS3. (http://www.iheartactionscript.com/coding-movieclips-as-buttons-in-as3/)

You can no longer put code directly onto a movieclip in AS3 - you need to put it in the timeline. So name your button something like myButton and then pu t in this code:


myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClickHandler);
function onClickHandler(m:MouseEvent)
{


play();
}

Hope that helps!
