Make a movie clip with two frames. In the first frame we need a STOP action and a small, red rectangle (the rectangle is just for controlling our work), in the second frame we fill the rectangle green and in the third frame we need a GOTO FRAME 2 AND PLAY action. Copy it to every handless button till it looks like this.
Now use the properties dialog field again, to make a _real_ copy of every movie (the same you have done to the handless buttons) and call them like the areas of their position 1b, 1c, 1d, ... (name and instance name).
