Stop looping

Hi experts,

I'm making a slide show. However, instead of having pictures per frame, I have a movieclip. Just so every page can have a little bit of animation. I used the Presentation template (simple). I made two slides in two frames for testing. the slide works with the back and next button, however the clip keeps on looping. If I go to slide 2, the movieclip keeps on looping. I tried putting stop(); but it just freezes the whole animation. looking forward to get inputs please, thanks in advance.

place a stop() on the last frame of the movieclip that you have in your main timeline's frame 1 and place a stop() in the last frame of the movieclip you have in your main timeline's frame 2.
