You can disable the button when you tell it to do whatever else it's
meant to do. In Flash 8, try this from the main timeline:

button.onRollOver = function() {
// your buttons regular actions here, then disable the button with
_root.button.enabled = false;
}

In Flash 9, try this from the main timeline:

button.addEventListener("mouseOver", doThis);
function doThis(event:MouseEvent) {
// your buttons regular actions here, then disable the button with
this.button.enabled = false
}

Hope this helps!
