I know this is something simple but I'm lost. Using Flash5 still.

I have narration to a movie. I need for the movie to wait until the narration is done and then automatically go to the next frame. I added loops and attached sounds to buttons before with no probs but this one has me stumped. I know I can do this by brut force by making the next item in my movie not appear until the sound layer is done but I'll end up with a movie that's 5000 frames long! There has to be a better way.

I'm just starting with a little actionscript so I get confused easily.

Any help or direction to a tutorial that will help will be appreciated.

are you using mx?

if so you can use

mySound.onSoundComplete=function(){
//whatever
}

otherwise put your sound in an mc and on the last frame of that mc have an action that moves _root to the next frame...
