multiple actions on one button

[autumn_whispers2me]

I'm a rookie when it comes to Flash, and the version I have is 5. What I'm trying to do on a button is this:

on rollover: play a sound from the library
on click: go to url

It sounds easy, but I can't seem to figure out HOW to do this. I understand (I think) the "get url" action... just fill in the url in the field in the actions panel. But when I try to insert the action for hover (play a sound) I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be telling it to do to play this sound. Make sense?

Why are you trying to insert a sound from the library? You can drag a sound from the library to the timeline and make a button play that sound on mouseoever extremely easily without Actionscript.

So do I just create a mouseover, not adding 'what' to do on mouseover and just drag the sound file over to the timeline?

Nah, you don't use actionscript (well you can but just for a sound it's not needed). All you do is double click on the button to open up it's timeline. Then make a KeyFrame in the Mouse-over tab and drag your sound clip to that key frame on the time-line.

It sounds simple, and I will try it---but my brain will ultimately find a way to make it difficult! lol But thanks... I'm going to try it out.
