I have a looping sound playing in channel one... i want to be able to control
the sound volume with a Plus and Minus button.. i had the idea of setting a
variable to put in the "sound(1).volume=X-10" but i cant get the syntax
right... Also if it is possible am i able to start and stop the channel one
sound with one button instead of 2?

Hoss

s = new Sound();

on plus button
[b]s.setVolume(s.getVolume()+1);[/b]

on minus button
[b]s.setVolume(s.getVolume()-1);[/b]

where does the s = new Sound(); go??

the frame on which u have buttons.
Place this code on the keyframe. This code is used to load external sound. R u
using any other way of playing sound??

s = new Sound();
s.loadSound("whatever.mp3");
s.start(0,1);
