Well, it sounds like you're trying to use a skin for something beyond it's purpose.

So if you want to access it, this should work: myWindow.back_mc regards, Muzak ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andrew Sinning" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Sent: Saturday, May 19, 2007 2:04 PM Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] how to accesscustom TitleBackground(skinTitleBackground) of Window > Let me ask the question another way: how do I access movieClips and/or > TextFields within my custom TitleBackground _in_general_, > regardless of what I call them.
