"I am guessing that the 'this' is pointing to the symbol or _mc I attach the class to?" Not attach, but define. The class defines the object and 'this' refers to the one (instance) being accessed: Let's say you use the ToggleButton class to create two instances: public var toggleButton1:MovieClip; // ** public var toggleButton2:MovieClip; and somewhere you call someMethod() on toggleButton1... toggleButton1.someMethod(); // 1 or toggleButton2.someMethod(); // 2 Then once inside someMethod(), the reserved variable 'this' would refer to operations on toggleButton1 on line 1 and toggleButton2 on line 2. Q. "But how to I use it as a symbol class?" Let's say it's not the document class. Save the file ToggleButton.as. In your new code create a new symbol called ToggleButton for the library and in its properties you name the file ToggleButton.as Any code after that can just declare it as in ** and use it as in 1 and 2. Those books will be a big help.
