That worked. Thanks :)

If your component live preview is generated by Flash, when you specify an
AS2 class in the Component Definition dialog, then you can check for
_global.isLivePreview in your class code. Some of the V2 components use
this.
That variable is populated by Flash when your live preview is generated
that way.
If your live preview is a SWF that you've published, then you can just
provide a variable such as this yourself.

Subject: SPAM-LOW: [Flashcoders] Live Preview Woes
I am working on a component that attaches a movieclip. When I drag it to
the stage it attaches multiple copies of this movieclip skipping my
checks and balances. But when I test the movie it works fine and only
shows one instance like i designed it to. Is there anyway to find out in
my component class file if the instance is on the stage or in a test
movie?
