Layer Label in Flash 5

[lannie1]

I am learning Flash 5 and I picked an example tutorial from a page entitled
"Flash Interactive Sound Design Part 1: Interactivesound.fla (page 3). The HTML
file name is createtimeline.htm.
Everything went fine until the tutorial
mentioned creation of a "stop" label in
frame 5 of the "actions" layer. The author showed an image of the result but did not
explain exactly how he created the "stop"
label. I have tried everything that I know how to try but I simply have not been able to create that label.
The url of the web site is Sonify.org. It is
sort of embarrasing after a 36 year career
as a computer professional (I retired in 1992) that I finally must admit that I don't
know everything! I am kidding, of course.
I want to learn this friggin Flash stuff, but some of you young 'uns will have to help me out cause I'm stuck!!!
Thanks a bunch.

is it a stop LABEL or a stop Actionsctipt command ( i.e. stop(); )

Thanks for the reply.
It is not an actionscript. He uses the panels, etc.

frame labels are added using the Frame panel in Flash 5. Seems counter intuitive, doesnt it? ;)

open it from the Window menu or by pressing Ctrl+F - for frame. Then, with your frame in the timeline selected, in the Frame panel insert a name in the Label: text field

:)

I shpuld have mentioned the most important fact that I highlighte the specified frame and opened the frame panel but it's greyed out. I keep wondering about whether or not the frame is really selected. I click on it and it appears to be selected but I am not certain. I may have to go on to something else and come back to it with, hopefully, a fresh view.
Thanks

P.S. If you think of something else to look
at, I would appreciate your response.
