Hi Bob,

The first mistake is using the "button" type. They are very limited in functionality.

Change all of your buttons to type MovieClip and then change your code to the following:

Make sure each button has the 'toggle' parameter set to true. You can change this by clicking on the button parameters tab in the property inspector. You can also do it with actionscript by writing button1.toggle = true, etc.

Something like this could work. Every time a button is pressed, all of the buttons' selected states are set to false, and then the button passed to the function is set to true.
