I am confused. I noted that the latest download (5/19) supposedly fixed the missing GoToFrame command option. I downloaded and installed it, saw the inclusion of the GoToFrame, and assumed everything was fine. However, whenever I tried to use it, I got this error: "FLASHEFF2 ERROR: Unknown eventType. Available events are: rollOver, rollOut, press, release, doubleClick, showTransitionStart, showTransitionEnd, hideTransitionStart and hideTransitionEnd." I got this no matter what event was selected.
I reported this with a ticket. The ticket was closed with a statement that this was a beta problem, but was given no way of knowing when there might be a resolution.
Then, I noticed that, in this Forum, dipopeters seemed to feel that the 5/19 release solved the problem.
Is there a problem? Do I just need to correct something in how I use this feature? Am I waiting around for nothing, or something?

As a follow-up, I have tried uninstalling both the original FlashEff and FlashEff2 Private Beta and then installing again the Private Beta. I then opened a clean FLA, and set up a minimal scene with a button. I still get the above error.
Anticipating possible question: I'm running CS3 V9, with publish setting Flash Player 9.

Ionut,
Thanks for the advice, but I think there is something deeper going on. What you found may help me figure out what, but I still have the problem.
If you check earlier in this thread, since we communicated yesterday, I have tried some things to narrow down the problem.
Ultimately, after reinstalling FlashEff2 Private Beta cleanly, and creating a whole new document, only the FlashEff2 component on the system, and trying to get a button to work, still get the error.
Now, two things. First, I HAD installed the FlashEff2 alongside the existing FlashEff (before I uninstalled both, and reinstalled Beta).
Second, the problem occurs with any command on a button: Not just GoToFrame.
Third, it seems to me to be significant that the error message is "FLASHEFF2 ERROR: Unknown eventType" .
Will forward a copy of a (much smaller) test FLA I created from scratch with the new Beta install. My setup is still giving me the error.
Thanks for sticking with this.

Ionut,
Thanks for all your help. With your help, I have solved the problem.
It turns out that when looking at the mxp file, I had been looking at the date and not the time. I was going with the 11:00 am version, instead of the 5:20 version. The version numbers were not changed, and so I had inadvertently re-installed the 11:00 am version.
Works now.
Thanks again.

Here is a list of all the methods you can use FlashEff from script: [www.flasheff.com]
Hope it helps, if not the chat and the forums are at your disposal.
