Looking for a Crossword Tutorial

I've been looking for a tutorial that will help me with an educational crossword-type puzzle that I'm doing; I've searched and can't find any aside from one non-English one that seems to take a different approach than I would (as far as I can tell).  Basically, I have a grid where each square is an area for input text.  If someone enters the correct letters in each square, then I would go to a frame that has the word in static text, and plays a short movie of something associated with that word or phrase.  I have a rough idea that if all of the conditions are met, then it would go to frame 2, lock it, and play the movie, something like:

if (1db eq "b" and 1da eq "a" and 1dt eq "t") { 
        gotoAndPlay ("1dcorrect");
    } else {
        gotoAndStop ("1dwrong");
    }
}

Repeat for all words.  But perhaps this is the wrong way to do it?  I'd really love a good tutorial to look at for the actionscript logic, as this is very new for me.  Thanks!
