    On the last frame, put Stop()

    stop() won't stop your sounds, stopAllSounds() will do that.

    You probably have your sound sync wrong. Try setting it to start and loop or maybe stream. Play with it to find the desired effect

    hmm...stop() stops the animation and sounds for me. umm...the way i set up my sound was by dragging and dropping from my library onto the background. should i perhaps set it up differently?

    and since im somewhat new to flash (about 4 days of experience), i'm not sure what you mean by the "sound sync" and all that. could you please explain? thanks a lot for puttin' up w/a newbie!

    Click on the frame that holds the sound, look at the properties panel. Some sound options should present themselves to you
