Since you're using the WMP ActiveX control, use this:

You'll find a list of all its properties if you double-click the ActiveX

Yes. First, you set your email preferences to Text-Only mode for Lingo-L (no
HTML), then you use something like this:
global fPlaybackHeadStopped
on mouseUp me
one way is to set a global flag, and in every frame, have this sort of script:
global holdItRightThereBuddyBooleanFlag
on exitFrame
if holdItRightThereBuddyBooleanFlag then
go the frame
end if
end
and on your mouseUp, just set it to true.
