    Trying to locate pictures in a flash .fla file

    Ok im doing a bit of editing on a flash website for a friend, any way im trying to determine how the actionscript is linking the pictures with a button.

    Ok here is the code that changes a picture-

    Code:
    on (release)
    {
        pictures.gotoAndStop(14);
    }
    the relesase is for a button but what i cant work out is where the hell or what "pictures." is refering to. I assume its some object/container or a function but i can not find anything within the actionscript that mentions pictures except within the code for each button.

    Any help with this would be great, note im a bit of a newb when it comes to flash/actionscript,

    Thanks,

      Try to find where 'pictures' is located; imported from library to stage (likely so), or created with actionscript.

        I didn't find anything called pictures within the document but it turns out that the images files where imported into a sprite and i think that in the actionscript each button was telling the sprite to jump to a frame then stop.

          Sprite objects don't have a timeline like movieclip objects. So you cannot jump to a frame in a sprite. Please post the relevant code or the .fla file.
