Aiming Cameras on Objects

Hi, I'm working through a tutorial at the moment, just building a simple rocket ship and animating its takeoff, it is real basic stuff for most ppl, I'm finding it ok so far but I'm stuck when I come to spotlights... the tutorial says to position 3 spotlights which I have done, then what I have to do is select a spotlight and the rocket, then make the spotlight always focus on the rocket, I think it was something like Constrain > aim ... or something, anyways when I do this it says it worked, like in the hypergraph there is a connection made between the spotlight and some other node which must represent the connection .... but the spotlight itself is not pointing at the rocket, my question is why? I cannot change the position of the spotlight to face the rocket, and thats sposed to be done automatically by aiming it at the rocket... any ideas?


Sorry If ive managed to confuse you even more !
