stop in current frame + play BACKWARDS ?!?

[jule4489]

Should be really simple: I want to assign the action to a button to play the movie backwards. When the button is hit the movie should stop at the current frame and start playing backwards from this frame on. HOW?

Can anyone help? I have looked through several books and tutorials and can't find anything on it. I am new to Flash (MX, 6.0). Please explain in simple terms. I DO APPRECIATE IT!

on(release){
back=true;
}
onEnterFrame=function(){
if(back==true){
prevFrame();
}
}

Use the search and search for "reverse play"... You'll get dozens of threads on this issue.
