Try: parent_mc[listWhatever[0]];
Ade -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Kent Humphrey Sent: 30 January 2006 13:25 To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: [Flashcoders] targetting a mc from a list I have a list: (code is example only) listWhatever = ["mc1", "mc2"]; This list is cycled through to generate some mcs inside parent_mc. I now want to target one of those mcs again. Lets say I want to target the first one in my list. I thought I could use eval() to generate the statement, like so: eval("parent_mc."+listWhatever[0]); But trace() that returns undefined. How do I do it? Thanks. _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
