Can you set variables to buttons to control the timeline

Hi All

It has been a very long time since I have developed in Flash... now Animate.

I am working my way around the new software but have a question...

I was wondering if I can add a variable to a button to control the timeline.

What I want to do is have, say, 4 buttons on a frame... then when one of the buttons is selected it goes to the next frame for general info and then it moves to one of 4 other frames.

What I am thinking is something like:

• Frame 1 - 4 buttons
  • Button 1 - linked to frame 2 to redirect to frame 3
  • Button 2 - linked to frame 2 to redirect to frame 4
  • Button 3 - linked to frame 2 to redirect to frame 5
  • Button 4 - linked to frame 2 to redirect to frame 6
• Frame 2 - general information that shows for a while and then skips to the correct frame depending on the button that was selected.

Is this possible?

If so can you help me with the code I need or point me in the right direction for a tutorial etc.

Thanks for your help in advance.
