Thank you very much that works fine now :-)
 At the risk of stretching help too far... too achieve my aim I need
 some selection buttons to allow the user to select which movie file.
 Although as you can see my ability is very basic I wodered if I could
 achieve this with using behaviors and I guess layers.  Am I right in
 trying that route or is there a far simpilar way of selecting movies
 
 Thanks again
