Oh; the components that Flash MX 2004 use, although most will work in Flash
Player 6.0.79.0, will NOT work in AS1 as they are coded in AS2. You'll have
to use another type of button.

Okay, like I said I'm using Flash MX Professional 2004. All I did was drag
a Button from the UI Components in the Components panel. I dragged it to
the stage. Then I changed the label to "Settings" in the Properties panel,
just to put some appropiate label on the button. Then in the Actions panel
I entered:
on (press) {
System.showSettings(2);
}
(The Actions panel where I typed this code had a tab labelled "Button",
since the Button component that I had dragged to the stage was selected.)
Doing all this with the Publish settings on ActionScript 1.0 (and Flash
Player 6.0) results in an empty white rectangle in place of that nice little
button.
Doing this same thing (except with "click" in place of "press" in the code
above) with the Publish settings on ActionScript *2.0* (and Flash Player
6.0) works perfectly.
But I need to do it in ActionScript 1.0 since my other components are
ActionScript 1.0.
