cheers

there's 2 ways to do it.

open actions panel (F9), type 'stop()';. this stops the movie from playing past the current frame (frame 1)
make your button - make sure it's a button symbol and not a movie clip/graphic.
option 1: apply the actions diretly on the button - select the button, in the actions panel type:

on(release) {
gotoAndPlay(#ofthenextframe);
}
option 2: apply the actions to the frame - assign the button an instance name via properties panel, type:

instancename.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndPlay(frame#);
}
