Which animation package are you using?
He's using Flash...?
I've done stuff in Flash but never heard of/used an animation package called Flash. I tried the official thing (Director?) but that was a nightmare, so switched to Corel R.A.V.E. or 3D Flash Animator.
If you're talking about a simple button taking you to a scene, the following actionscript is all that's needed:
Where "game" is the name of the scene, followed by the frame number.
on (release) { gotoAndPlay("game",1);}Where "game" is the name of the scene, followed by the frame number.

You add the actionscript to the frame itself, not the button object. Simply add the button to the scene, select it and add the script.

I've done some stuff in Flash at school, and it is an official product. It was a nightmare. I would recommend trying to find some other solution. If you do end up using it, read the manual. It amkes things a lot easier. However, I am a fan of coding it myself.

Sounds like your adding the actionscript to a graphic or movie clip object instead of a button.
