> I have a scrolling menu that creates an empty movie clip

> mask and this is used to mask the scroller.
> 
> Icons are then attached to the scroller and used as buttons. 
> The scroller movies back and forward according to mouse position.

> The problem is when I try to load a different set of icons 
> into the same scroller. I create a new movie clip called 
> scroller in the same level as the last scroller was created. 
> I then create the mask and attach icons - all exactly as 
> before. Thing is I am just left looking at the mask. What 
> happens (as far as I can tell) is that the old scroller 
> doesn't disappear straight away. It actually disappears along 
> with the new one after all the code has run. This means that 
> the mask is left there with nothing to mask.
> 
> I have tried unloading the scroller, deleting it and so on 
> with no luck
> - whenever I do this I can still trace the scroller after 
> doing so so it doesn't help.

> Is there anyway I can really get rid of the scroller before
