Can't find ActionScript code on downloaded .fla file

[schoollibrary]

I'm trying to learn ActionScript for FlashMX on my own. I want to make a simple puzzle program where students grab items from the right and drag them to the correct spot on the left. I'm having trouble finding a tutorial to walk me through this. I found a sample movie here under Games called Jig Saw Puzzle. It's a lot more complex than what I want to do, but I downloaded the .fla file. As I'm looking at it in Flash, though, I can find no ActionScripting beyond stop(); in Frame 1. This is a funtional file because when I go to Control -> Test Movie, it makes the puzzle perfectly. Where is the ActionScript for this hiding? How can I learn from it? Thanks!

Hi Kim

at first I'll tell you that a jigsawpuzzle isn't quite the easiest thing to start with. It involves a lot of code that I have to admit I won't be able to solve...

there are also two ways of applying code: on a frame, like the stop(); you found, and on instances (all the things on your stage).

try selecting them by clicking them once and then press f9 (opens the actions palette).

you should see the coding by then :)
hope this helps
friendly greetings,

That will show you all the ActionScripts that are in the Flash movie... ;)
