Help Please: Modifying a Motion Guide

Question

I have a flash application that moves a magnifying glass
along a motion guide to highlight various aspects of a template. As
it moves through, it stops at various (keyframe) portions of the
template until the user clicks the next button, then the magnifying
glass continues along the path, moves to the next area, stops,
moves on, etc, etc.
About mid-way through the timeline, I need to remove one of
the areas along the path the magnifying glass highlights because it
is no longer an option. I'm assuming this means I need to somehow
remove that portion of the motion guide and key frames and
reconnect the dots somehow.
Any suggestions? It seems when I try to remove the frames, it
breaks. When I try to modify the motion guide, it breaks.
So I guess the overall question is, how do you change a
Motion guide path somewhere in the middle of the timeline without
breaking the entire thing. Your help and comments are most
appreciated.
Regards,
Stephen

This is probably the most confusing explanation I've ever heard. Do you have pictures? It sounds like you're trying to make 2 sided shapes. That's not too hard. You just have to separate them in space by 1 unit in z space. Remember, if you're using lighting you need to light both sides.
