Ok that's a good idea! So just wanted to check that fundamentally each time you want to animate a MC using tween animation on the time line you have to create a 2nd instance of the sprite for the end keyframe? So say MC is on frame 1 you have to press F6 to insert a 2nd keyframe at say frame 10 and then right click on frame 5 and choose "create motion tween".
