Wow, thanks! It's been a while since i've been called a dreamboat. :-) As to your question, yes if a playstopped handler is in the current execution chain, then it will get called anytime a sound (or for that matter a video) stops playing. And, yes setting a global when you played a sound that you didn't want to initiate the playing of your whole series of sounds would be one way to go. Another method would be to use the argument that playstopped returns. It returns the name of the audioclip, videoclip, or player that has just stopped, so you could potentially make decisions based on this. Here's a quick dumb example.
on playstopped theSound if theSound is "play it again sam.wav" then playMySounds end if end playstopped Keep in mind, I'm not saying the above way is any better than using a global, just that it's another way. Oh, well, back to my own Metacard problems. Don't know why it always seems more easy and fun to help others with their problems. -Glen Yates Shari Wrote: > It worked! > > It worked! It worked!
