If you put the following frame labels inside 4 frames of a movie clip: _up, _over, _down, _hit
and put a stop action in each of those frames, when you assign behaviors to the movie clip instance (i.e. myMC.onRelease = function() ) the movie clip will act exactly like a button. Is this what you mean?
