Just a quick one,
are you sure about the very first line ?
where are you creating the movieclip ?
maybe it should be
this.createEmptyMovieClip(...
or
someOther_mc.this.createEmptyMovieClip(...
glenn
//create a container called "c"
c = c.createEmptyMovieClip("c", 1);
/*
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//the developer created sctnTxt arrray

*/
var sctnTxt_array:Array = new Array("news", "philosophy", "about us",
"excursions", "rentals", "locations", "gallery", "links", "contact");
//trace(sctnTxt_array);

/*
//within c create a new array called "sctnNm_array" of

*/
function populate() {
for (i=0; i<sctnTxt_array.length; i++) {
var sctnNm_array:Array = new Array();
sctnNm_array[i] = c.createEmptyMovieClip("sctnNm"+i, i);
/*
//populate each movie clip with an empty text field

100, 30);
sctnNm_array[i][j].autoSize = true;
sctnNm_array[i][j].border = true;
