Steve,
no i'm not calling this from a panel. I'm using an external jsfl file and
importing swfs and running the command against that. I'll see if i can find the
rectangle or mouse click option. But i was hoping there was a way to find out
what each elements DOM position is on the stage.

Hey Jason,
Are you calling this from a panel? If you are, make sure the panel is
docked. There are bugs with certain JSFL commands if a panel isn't
docked when it calls them and setTextString is one of them.
Also, you could also try selecting the text field using the rectangle
selection command (not sure what it is off-hand) and then using the
document command for setting a text string, versus the element command.
You could also try using the mouse click command, though that's kind of
dirty.
