    This is simple.
    1. Copy all the frames, ex if you have 1 to 10 frames copy those frames, place a stop() action on frame 10.
    2. Create a new layer select frame 11 and paste previously selected 1 to 10 frames, select all these frames in layer 2 and got to tab Modify-Timeline and click Reverse Frame. This will reverse all your animation.
    3. Now write the Mouse Roll out action to play animation in layer 2 that starts from Key Frame 11.

    Hope this helps, soot me message if you get struck. Will Help.

    What you can do is create a boolean and an onEnterFrame function.

    Replace "theMovie" and "theButton" with the instance names of the MovieClip and Button respectively.
    
 
var inReverse:Boolean = false; // keep it false it first; it becomes true when you want to reverse
 
//What you already have
 
theButton.on(rollOver){
[INDENT=1]theMovie.gotoAndPlay(1);[/INDENT]
}
 
 
//The onEnterFrame function 
 
theMovie.onEnterFrame = function(){
[INDENT=1]if(inReverse){ //If the movie is in reverse...[/INDENT]
[INDENT=2]theMovie.prevFrame(); //Go backwards[/INDENT]
[INDENT=2] [/INDENT]
[INDENT=2]if(theMovie._currentframe == 1){ //Check to see if the first frame has been reached...[/INDENT]
[INDENT=3]theMovie.stop(); //If so, stop...[/INDENT]
[INDENT=3]inReverse = false; //And you're no longer in reverse.[/INDENT]
[INDENT=2]}[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]} else { //If the movie is not in reverse...[/INDENT]
[INDENT=2]if(theMovie._currentframe == theMovie._totalframes){ //If it has reached its end...[/INDENT]
[INDENT=3]theMovie.stop(); //Stop...[/INDENT]
[INDENT=3] [/INDENT]
[INDENT=3] [/INDENT]
theButton.on(rollOut){ // Set up your rollOut listener
[INDENT=1]inReverse = true; //It will cause the movie to go in reverse[/INDENT]
}
 
[INDENT=2]}[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]}[/INDENT]
}
    Code (markup):
    That should work. Let me know if it helps or if it doesn't work properly.
