Cursor changing problems with play done command in Director MX--PLEASE HELP!

Hi there

I am creating an interactive CD-Rom in Director MX on PC. I have a problem with some of my cursor changes. I have a manual on the disc, after the user has finished reading it, they have to press a "back" button to return to which frame they came from. This uses the "play done" command.

I do realise there are issues with the play done command, but it was my only option in this case. Once the play done command has been excecuted the cursor doesn't change at all again. I have behaviours changing the cursor on each button in my movie, but they don't work AT ALL after this command has run. They all work 100% before this command is run.

The code on the "back" button:

on mouseEnter me
cursor 280
sprite(the currentSpriteNum).member="backButton_over"
end
on mouseLeave me
cursor -1
sprite(the currentSpriteNum).member="backButton"
end
on mouseDown me
cursor 280
sprite(the currentSpriteNum).member="backButton_over"
end
on mouseUp me
cursor -1
play done
end

Is this a common problem with the play done command? Or am I doing something wrong here?:?:
