Ok I'm following a tutorial thats made for flash MX right, I know that MX is similar to flash 8, anyway I'm told I need a compnent button, which I've placed, now the tutorial tells me to give the button a label and a click handler, so i go to the properties inspector and I go to paramiters, label is there so i fill it in, but click handler is not, I'm either supposed to set the click handler somewhere else or its a diffrence between flash 8 and mx, either way could you awesome people push me in the right direction.

The listener event model allows listeners to handle events. (See Handling Component Events.) Flash doesn't have a clickHandler parameter in the Property inspector, as there was in Flash MX; you must write ActionScript code to handle events.

Put a dinamic text box in front of the screen and give it the variable baz_var
Put in the actionscript:

baz_var = random(30);
stop();

it should show a random number up to 30 I and stop...I hope.

on(release){
if (_root.C == _root.D){
th2kf9var = "Correct! They are a match!";
}
}
on(release){
if (_root.C != _root.D){
th2kf9var = "Wrong! They were different. You need to touch up on your skills!";
}
}


Is there any reasons that that wouldn't work?
C and D are variables from movie clips, where the movie clip frame is random.
th2kf9 is a text variable
The code above is in a button

edit: It works for every fram in the movieclip other than if both movieclips are on frame 1
