I don't think you can. Frame is a scheduled screen refresh and all the code is already executed. I believe Flash looses reference to the current frame's code when screen refreshes. In other words, Flash already left the frame even if movie is stopped.

I see you point

there is a way to do this if you know what are the possible reasons of leaving the frame. I mean if the only way to leave the frame is to press a particular button, add the code to the button's listener.

You could also try to attach some code to your desired frame's parent, for ex:

//PARENT's LISTENER
if(child.currentFrame != someFrame)
{
doSomething
}

There could be planty ways to do it, but it all depends on your project's architecture.

Flash 10 has added Event.EXIT_FRAME, that might do what you need.

Strangely though the Flash 10 help says it came with Flash Player 9. Maybe it's a new ability that can still work with the older player?
