now and thanks again.
-Jason
ctime = sprite(2).currenttime
-- 8 is the video sprite #
floatPrecision = 10
-- allow floating numbers to use 10 decimal places
cdur = float(sprite(2).duration)
-- set the duration of movie to a Floating point number
cpart = ctime * float(1.0000000000/cdur)
-- this number is 1 / clip lenghth
put cpart
cloc = sprite(149).width * cpart
-- this number is the slider lenght
vcalc = integer(cloc)
sprite(150).loch = vcalc + sprite(149).loch - (sprite(149).width/2)
-- this number is the Horizontal location of the left edge of the bar
