You can do this:

myButton_btn.onRelease = myButton_btn.onPress = myButton_btn.onRollOver =
function(){
doStuff();
}

In my experience that doesn't work. It *should*, but for some reason, the function never gets assigned to most or all of the events. Better is to use Delegate.

import mx.utils.Delegate;

function doStuff(){
   // code...
}
myButton_btn.onRelease = Delegate.create(this,doStuff);
myButton_btn.onPress = Delegate.create(this,doStuff);
myButton_btn.onRollOver = Delegate.create(this,doStuff);

What that does is assign the function "doStuff" to the event, and it will be executed within the scope specified (in the above example, "this" is the scope). It's still 3 lines, but at least it's not a new function defenition for each line, it's just an assignment.
