Hi, I am new to flash cs3 and for my clas project we have to do a flash product. I have made a movie clip which has a button inside and I have coded the button to open another scene but I keep getting ArgumentError: Error #2108: Scene Contactsvid was not found whenever I test it. The actionscript I am using is the following:

stop();

btn_contacts.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,mouseDownHandlerbtn_contacts);

function mouseDownHandlerbtn_contacts(event:MouseEvent):void {

MovieClip(root)}gotoAndStop(1, "Contactsvid");

I have entered the name of the scene exactly how its named but it still fails to work.

Please help me

That looks okay, but I think I now see a problem that might be the cause, though I get different results when I test with your code...

MovieClip(root)}gotoAndStop(1, "Contactsvid");

In the middle of that line is a curly brace where a period should be.  That brace belong at the end of the function

Show the frames panel where you assigned the scene its name.
